This time on The Children's Hour, using interviews, music, stories and poetry, we learn about the largest animal to ever live on Earth, which still roams the oceans today: whales.
We meet Melania Guerra, a marine biologist who researched whale songs and background noise interference in San Ignacio Lagoon, the birthing waters of Gray Whales. Hear the story The Whale and the Snail by Julia Donaldson, published by Puffin Books, and performed by the Kids Crew. We also meet a Mexican pongero, or boat driver who teaches kids and adults about the friendly whales in his backyard.
Mixed with excellent music, take a trip under the sea with The Childrens Hour this week to learn about whales!
