Booklist - 10/01/2025 *Starred Review* Help can come from unlikely places, and the True Animal Rescues series (6 titles) shares incredible stories of heroic creatures. In this title, readers will learn about four instances when whales rescued humans in danger. The succinct accounts typically span four photo-rich pages and share amazing tales of a humpback whale saving a marine scientist from a tiger shark, a beluga whale lifting an aquarium worker back to the surface of its tank, and valiant dolphin pods protecting swimmers. The clean, uncluttered layout features well-chosen stock images (many full-page); text on solid backgrounds; bolded vocabulary; and interesting factoids inserted as captions or in color bars. A concluding whale “profile” highlights whales as social, compassionate, and sensitive creatures. A visually attractive and easy-to-read offering for animal lovers. - Copyright 2025 Booklist.
