Dive into Earth's oceans and discover the world of the beluga whale! Stunning, full-color photos show these Arctic whales above water and below. A range map reveals where these special sea creatures can be found. A labeled diagram helps readers identify flukes, flippers, and more. The beluga whale's size, habitat, senses, threats, diet, reproduction, and unique behaviors are also introduced. Plus, find out how belugas change color as they age, why they are called canaries of the sea, and how they change their facial expressions. A facts page, bolded glossary terms, and an index support the engaging, easy-to-read chapter text. Checkerboard Library is an imprint of ABDO Publishing Company.

      These easy-to-read (though choppily written) books include colorful photos to engage young readers and focus on topics such as diet, habitat, and behavior. The similarities and differences among the many different species of whales are also discussed. A world map clearly shows "where they live"; a diagram of whale anatomy is also included. Glos., ind.
