This is the New and Updated version of Gibbons' book on Whales originally published in 1991. This is a great summary book introducing different types of whales to young readers. The book shows descriptions of sizes, skeletal and muscle systems, and talks about the different features of different whales. 

I loved how engaging this book is. The facts about whales are super interesting and the images are captivating, making the reader want to learn more about whales.
