Omschrijving
Calf is a newborn humpback whale, venturing into an exciting marine world while being nurtured and cared for by his mother. Join them as they travel along the east coast of Australia, meeting marine creatures. See the challenges Calf and Whale face as they head down into the icy waters of Antarctica, and marvel at these amazing ocean giants.
"Readers will learn about breeding, feeding, communication, food chains and some of the threats faced by whales. Non-fiction information is softened by lyrical descriptions – ‘painting a picture’ rather than just recounting the facts. Samantha Metcalfe specialises in wildlife illustration, and this is evident in the detail and realism of her illustrations."
Dr Vanessa Pirotta is a wildlife scientist and science communicator. Vanessa has travelled the world for humpback whale research, and her most famous research involves the use of drones to collect whale snot!
Samantha Metcalfe is a natural history illustrator who finds inspiration in the unique biodiversity of the Australian bush.
