Loretta R. (passthebook) reviewed Manatee on the Move (also published as Chessie, the Travelin' Man) on + 4 more book reviews
This is a cute book for a child of 5-9 years of age. It is written as a poem with rhynming text and is the true story of about a Manatee who swam up the east coast and was rescued and flown south again, only to swim the same route the following year all the way to New York. This time he swam himself back. This book comes with a cassette tape that reads the story to music. Interesting and sweet.
