This series for elementary-level classrooms serves a double purpose. The books help develop children's reading skills, and introduce concepts of natural science. Handsome illustrations are scientifically accurate.Captain Jim tells young Zach and Mandy about orcas, or killer whales. The kids learn that killer whales aren't dangerous to people, but mainly to seals and penguins whom they hunt for food.
