When a sooty tern chick takes flight it will stay airborne for ten years, not setting down until it is ready to have chicks of its own. The mother sea otter wraps her pup in a net of seaweed at nap time. Manatee calves have been known to floss their teeth on boat lines. These are a few of the interesting facts culled from this book by a mother and daughter naturalist/photographer team. A sidebar of vital statistics is included for every seashore baby profiled.
