wonderful tale of the manatee, one of the animals injured in the gulf oil spill

This book is really presented wonderfully and the reader can learn much about this endangered species. The recent gulf spill affected both the swinming and feeding grounds of this magnificent animal. THe manatee is a specialspecies and the author resents the text clearly and in a language easy to understand.
