Dancing with Manatees
Faith McNulty
Told from the perspective of a young girl, the book follows her and her adult friend, a scientist, as they snorkel in a Florida river to observe manatees. The story is an informative text that examines the physical characteristics, behavior, and evolution of the gentle sea mammal. It highlights the manatees' lives, the bonds they form (such as with manatees named Laura and Laurette), and the threats they face from humans, including dangers like entanglement in fishing lines and motorboat accidents.
