Discover the majestic unicorn of the sea with this suspenseful
narrative from a BBC filmmaker and gorgeous art from an award-winning
illustrator.
With a crack and a creak, the frozen sea begins to melt--the ice
splits apart and a new pathway forms.
As winter comes to an end, a pod of narwhals begins a treacherous
journey north. Along the way, they must find fish to eat, avoid a hungry
polar bear, and navigate the maze of sea ice. Will their sensitive long
spiral tusks and clicking calls be enough to keep them safe and help
them find their way to their summer resting grounds? Join zoologist
Justin Anderson and artist Jo Weaver as they reveal the mysteries of
these amazing toothed whales and their Arctic home. Small text offers
narwhal facts throughout, and young explorers can read more on the
future of this fascinating creature in the back matter.
