This is an excellent non-fiction book about whales. Not only does it have information, it has comics, and even origami. It is an illustrated book, meaning no pictures. The pictures are more cartoonish in nature, but fitting for how the book was written.

Want to Know. Whales is a lovely book to introduce a young child to these amazing marine mammals and maybe inspire a future biologist? Geared towards older toddlers to early readers, the book is set up to be fun to read together or along. I think it presents the right amount of science to make it accurate but approachable and fun to read without being inaccurate (granted I am not a whale know it all). Example - they describe marine mammals as having babies that come from mother's belly vs fish eggs. If that bothers you, skip the page because the rest of the book is full of fun facts and relevant comparisons: blue whales can be as big as three school buses (kids get this!). I certainly learned some new facts about whales despite the book not being too long or wordy. I hope to see more from this author or series as science rules just like reading.
