Inhaltsangabe

A fascinating glimpse into a baby whale’s first migration from Mexico to Alaska; with a text in both English and Spanish

When Juana is born in the warm waters of Mexico, the little gray whale isn’t quite what you’d call little—she’s already as big as a boat, and drinks over fifty gallons of milk a day to keep growing! Soon it’s time to make a long journey with her pod to their summer feeding grounds. They swim north day and night, passing many familiar landmarks and carefully avoiding orcas and fishing nets. After spending the summer eating their fill in Alaskan waters, Juana and her pod return to their beautiful Mexican lagoon, where another baby is about to be born, and the cycle begins again.

Eye-catching illustrations and a playful narrative in Spanish and English combine to shine a light on these magnificent creatures—and are sure to inspire a new generation of whale lovers.
