Orca Song (Smithsonian Oceanic Collection)
Off the Washington coast, an Orca whale pod hunts a school of salmon circling within fisherman's nets. Orca the Pup has not yet mastered the hunt and finds himself tangled in an abandoned net. It only draws tighter as he struggles to free himself. His family has wandered off, too far away to help him. Managing to escape, Orca is exhausted and alone. Drifting all night through the moonlit sea, he awakes stuck on a sand bar under the heat of the morning sun. With a little help, Pup is freed. He returns to the sea where he seeks to hear the songs of his Orca family again. Narrated by Peter Thomas, this book/cassette combination is ideal for pre-school through second grade. --Midwest Book ReviewOff the Washington coast, an Orca whale pod hunts a school of salmon circling within fisherman's nets.
