Bindi Wildlife Adventures: A Whale of a Time by Chris Kunz
Random House, 2010. ISBN 9781864718508.
(Age 8-10) Highly recommended. This exciting new episode in the
Wildlife Adventure series is full of environmental and boating
information and includes the usual animal fact file at the back, this
time on whales. 12 year old twins visiting from England are excited to
join Bindi Irwin on a whale watching trip in a catamaran. The kids get
involved in a boating accident, an environmental disaster threatening
marine life along the coast and one experience of sea sickness while
they
encounter beautiful humpback whale pods. Highly recommended for eight
to ten year olds but especially suited for children with concern for
the environment.
