Book Description
for Sam the Sea Cow by Francine Jacobs and Laura Kelly
From the Publisher
Meet a gentle giant, a manatee affectionately known as Sam the sea cow, in this informative but beautifully illustrated picture book that's perfect for animal lovers.
Sam is called a sea cow because that's what he looks like--a big cow grazing in the ocean. He is also called a manatee. Readers are introduced to Sam when he is just hours old--though already forty pounds!--and watch him grow up. Combined with Sam's touching big adventure are numerous fun facts about manatees.
An exciting, accessible book gorgeously illustrated in full color.
