Graceful yet powerful, orca whales are masters of the sea. Known as "killer whales," these spectacular animals have captured the human imagination for hundreds of years. In this book, a boy and his father watch from a cliff as a pod of whales surface, leap above the waves, and plunge into the ocean. Stunning paintings by award-winning artist Lambert Davis add drama and mystery to Eve Bunting's spirited telling of the boy's observations - and the whales' observations of the boy. At the back of the book, information is included to teach readers more about these fascinating creatures. Bold, vibrant, and joyful, here is a celebration of the beauty of orca whales - and the majesty of the natural world.
