Killer Whales

(4) K-3 Zoom In on Ocean Animals series. These basic introductions to dolphins and orcas offer cursory facts about appearance, habitat, food, and life cycle. Simple if choppy texts for emergent readers are adequately reflected in the accompanying photos. The appended "Quick Stats" sections offer oddly conceived size comparisons (e.g., "a Maui's dolphin is longer than an acoustic guitar"), some with confusing visuals. Glos., ind. Review covers these Zoom In on Ocean Animals titles: Dolphins and Killer Whales.
