Aprašymas

I would like to dedicate this book to the beautiful gray whales that come down to Baja California each year. These great whales are protected now and return to Guerrero Negro in February for their yearly migration. They give birth and breed in these warm shallow waters. Their enemy, the Orca, can't come into this shallow lagoon, so the mothers and babies are safe. The mothers bring their newborn calves up to the boats and enjoy their interaction with humans. There is nothing more exciting and special than having a mother whale bring her baby up to the side of the boat so that you can pet it. They then migrate back to Alaska in March to eat and put on weight in preparation for their migration back to Guerrero Negro. This is a yearly ritual. This book describes their migration in an easy to read poem that teaches youngsters about the wonderful gray whales that migrate up and down the western coastal waters of the United States, Canada and Mexico.
