In winter the humpback whales migrate to warmer waters, just as some land animals move to warmer climates. The cycle begins again as they return to the northern waters in the spring. In fun, fanciful form, Ocean Seasons introduces plants and animals that are joined through the mix of seasons, food webs, and habitats beneath the waves. While set in the Pacific, similar changes occur in the Atlantic also. The For Creative Minds learning sections features...

Sailing along California's often forbidding coast was a risky venture before 1854, the year the state's first lighthouse was established. Eventually more than forty lighthouse stations were built to guide mariners along 1,200 miles of coastline from San Diego to the Redwood Coast, and through bays and inland waters.   Sharlene and Ted Nelson tell absorbing stories about each of these lighthouse stations, about the feats of their builders, and about the heroics of the men and women who tended the lights and fog signals. This new edition also contains:   - Information about lighthouses open to the public and offering tours....
