1.0 out of 5 stars
Better information on the internet...,
By Colin Bartol (Minneapolis, MN) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Whale Watchers Guide Revisited (Paperback)
Most of this book is a listing of some whale watching companies with litte infomation of real value. Which ones are good? No information about that. But there is information if their boat serves food, which they almost all do. Plus this information is old. No good pictures and no quality information about whales. I was completely disappointed in this suppossed "5 star" book. Don't buy this book -- do searching on line instead.

Ask not for whom the whale migrates,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Whale Watchers Guide Revisited (Paperback)
Thanks a lot. This book tells all the spots you may find me.
As a Humpback whale and elected leader of our pod I would like to say have a little decency and go stare at your own species for crying out loud. Don't we have enough stress in our lives wondering when the next one of us is going to get a harpoon stuck in his bladder? How would you like it if a bunch of us whales piled into a minivan and followed you and your family around? Gawking at you and your offspring as you stand in line for your happy meals or doing what ever your brutish species does. Doesn't sound like so much fun now does it? Go fiddle with the banana slugs or mimes, nobody likes them anyway.
