Dolphins and Porpoises

Reach for this book when your child starts asking those tricky 'what is the difference' questions after a trip to the aquarium or a day at the beach. It serves as a clear, accessible guide to distinguishing between two of the ocean's most beloved mammals, turning a general interest in sea life into a focused scientific inquiry. The book uses realistic illustrations and photographs to help children move beyond seeing these animals as just cute and toward understanding them as complex biological wonders. Beyond simple identification, the text fosters a deep sense of environmental wonder and intellectual curiosity. It is ideally suited for children aged 5 to 10 who are transitioning from simple picture books to more information-dense reading. Parents will appreciate the way it encourages shared learning, providing enough trivia (like the fact that some dolphins live in rivers) to keep adults engaged while building a child's confidence as a junior marine biologist.
