Children's book J. Rooker Manatee, soft bound cover,11" x 8 1/2"
The Florida manatee ranges the coastal waters of the state, satisfied to munch peacefully on freshwater grasses and water hyacinth. This shy, walrus like mammal is as harmless as he is defenseless. He has no natural predators, but he does have an enemy - man. The endangered status of the manatee is becoming urgent. Retired Minnesota teacher, Jan Haley, presents a fictionalized account of the real-life rescue, and later release of J. Rooker, a young manatee injured in a collision with a motorboat. It is a heart warming story which includes fascinating information about the manatee.
Celebrated Florida artist, Paul Brent, painted the brilliant illustrations. Paperback
