Description
Discover the magic of an underwater world with three-year-old dolphin Mattie and his friends. As youngsters, it's their first time attending the "Dolphin Olympics", where dolphins from all over the world gather to participate in events such as the "Great Challenge" and the "Most Flips in a Single Jump" contest. Challenges for Mattie are quick to find him, and during his exploits he gains the knowledge and confidence to become an independent dolphin.
The Dolphin Way tells the tale of Mattie's adventures while also revealing important facts and information about dolphins and their wonderful, fragile underwater environment. Learning about dolphins, marine life, and so much more is made easy and fun. All of the fun facts have been researched with an eye on the educational curriculum that every child should know.
