From School Library Journal
PreSchool-Grade 2-- The song about this small, white whale has as its hero probably the best loved of all Raffi's creations. Children who are learning about the interdependence of all life on Earth, and of the crucial importance of preserving the fragile environment, will get a first, cheerful lesson about the natural world by becoming acquainted with enchanting Baby Beluga, swimming wild and free with his mother in the deep blue sea. He and his friends are somewhat anthropomorphic, in the interests of cuddliness, but this does the message no harm . The illustrations are a joy to behold, and the song has a rhythm and rhyme that make it easy to remember and sing. --Joan McGrath, Education Centre Library, Toronto, Ontario, Canada

Now just right for little hands, Raffi's signature song comes in a board book edition. Baby Beluga--who lives in the deep blue sea, swims wild and free, and sleeps snug and warm by his mother's side--is one of the most endearing animal characters in all the world of children's songs. Raffi's simple lyrics are a loving tribute to an endangered creature. Full color.
