Synopsis

Orcas by Anna Claybourne

This series offers a fun and original look at some of the world's cleverest and most interesting animals-from man's best friend, to man's worst pest. In Orcas, readers will discover the special abilities that these amazing animals have adapted to help them survive in their wild environment, what humans have trained them to do using their special skills and intelligence, and where their abilities are vastly superior to our own. The book also looks at how we have used technology to recreate orcas' abilities.

I am so pleased to have signed my kids up as they are reading a much wider range of books and even choosing books out of their comfort zone.

I love all the books they recommend & put up for me to review. I also love the fact that they give new authors the chance to share their boo

It gives me a chance to read types of books that I would not normally try, and it motivates me to read every night to finish it!
