Walrus Song by Janet Lawler
Learn about how these captivating creatures flop and plop and call and play their way in and out of the icy waters they call home. What’s the ruckus? What’s that sound? Walrus calls and songs astound – Honk, honkkkk! HOOO, HOOOOT! Diving, feasting, twirling – catch a glimpse of the joy found in a walrus’s icy home. Follow as it plays hide-and-seek with a friend, lounges on an ice floe, and demonstrates an impressive repertoire of sounds. Janet Lawler celebrates the many wonders of being a walrus in a story that’s brought to life through Timothy Basil Ering’s exuberant artwork.
