Reseña del editor:

Invite readers to swim alongside a gray whale as she heads south on the longest migration journey of any mammal on Earth. When Whales Cross the Sea enchants readers with a story-like narrative while subtly teaching the role of migration in the whale's life cycle. Includes a "fast facts" page, a glossary, and realistic, text-match illustrations.
