Killer Whale: The World’s Largest Dolphin

Expanding the range of material that can be included in reports on whales, this book explains that every member of the dolphin family is a kind of whale. The title, which is filled with large, clear photos of the animals in motion, also covers habitat, how the creatures swim and breathe, family life, diet, and hunting. A full-page range map details where killer whales live in the wild, and a closing "More Big Dolphins" page provides brief facts on pilot and false killer whales, and bottlenose dolphins. Children will appreciate the picture glossary, and the website listings that are maintained at the publisher's site.
