The Story

A baby humpback whale is born in the waters of Hawaii. She nurses frequently and quickly gains the layers of blubber she needs to protect her later in the cold arctic waters. This account of the life history of humpback whales details the whales' migration to Arctic water in summer, their food and hunting techniques, and their enemies. It brings the reader the beauty of the humpbacks' lives and reveals their important place in the animal world. Full color.
