Manatees
Zelda King
Library Binding
(Powerkids Pr, Aug. 15, 2011)
Given its enormous girth, itΒs not hard to believe that the 1,5-pound manatee is actually a marine relative of the elephant. This gentle giant and its habitat have been greatly harmed by humans, but much work has been done to protect manatees from future damage. Readers follow along with the accessible text and full-color photographs as they find out what manatees eat, what their social life is like, and why they are in so much danger from people.
