Description
Meet the world s largest living fish: the whale shark. With a back like a mountain range and a body that creates an enormous, looming shadow in the ocean below him, the whale shark is an exceptionally gentle giantand yet it is relatively unknown. This informational picture book introduces readers to these stunning creatures in spare, poetic text. It s a lyrical meditation that gives a sense of the whale shark s slow, grand journey through the Earth s oceans while creating an opportunity for inquiry and awe.
