Editor reviews

A very short introduction to whales that would be a great choice for kids fascinated by the marine mammals. In a pleasant voice that communicates enthusiasm, the narrator outlines the various types of whales, how and what they eat, the ways they communicate among one another, the threats they face from humans and the environment, and more. Kids will enjoy the fun facts presented in bite-sized “did you know?” chunks, which are perfect for sharing with classmates and parents.

Summary

Learn about Whales with iMindsJNR audio learning series for younger minds. Whales may seem like the biggest fish in the ocean, but they’re actually not fish at all. Whales and dolphins are actually mammals, just like us! In fact, we’re more similar than you might think. Scientists believe that millions of years ago, whales lived on land and spent most of their time fishing in shallow water. Eventually they developed flippers instead of legs and started to live in the water! Now, whales can be found in all of the earth’s oceans.

Perfect to engage, entertain and broaden young thinkers.. iMindsJNR brings knowledge to your MP3 with 5 minute information segments for growing minds.

"I'm learning all sorts of stuff about stuff I didn't even know I didn't know. And it sticks. In a nutshell: wonderful." (Jonathon Margolis, Financial Times)

Too short

I hardly see the point of writing a book so short.
it's full of facts, aimed at children I think.
Accurate but so much omitted.
