A Dolphin Named Bob

Cute, cute, cute and informative about dolphins!

I think that A Dolphin Named Bob is a really good book. I liked the book because I really like dolphins. This book is about two dolphins named Aster and Bob. Aster was sick and stranded on the beach with no food or water. Some bird watchers found her and brought her to the closest aquarium. Aster was pregnant; Aster had a very scrawny baby. The trainers named the dolphin Bob, but they didn't think he would live. To find out if Bob did live, read A Dolphin Named Bob. I think you will like it a lot.

A Dolphin Named Bob, by Twig C. George, is the story of a dolphin named Bob who was a baby that was born of a mom (Aster) whom was not healthy! Bob was fed with milk by another mom (Anani) because Aster didn't have enough! I like this book because it has an adventurous dolphin (Bob). Bob jumped over the wall and into the big pool and Aster followed. I recommend this book because it's about a dolphin's life and what they do. If you want to find out more, read the book A Dolphin Named Bob.

If you have ever visited Sea World or any other metropolitan area aquarium, you will especially enjoy this book. It tells the story of a young female dolphin named Aster and the son she gives birth to at an aquarium on the East Coast.The story begins when Aster is accidentally washed onto the seashore and is unable to swim back into the ocean on her own. She lies stranded on the beach for a long time and nearly dies. A woman, affiliated with the local area aquarium, finds her and takes her to the aquarium where she is slowly nursed back to health. Due to a physical ailment, Aster is unable to ever return to her ocean home and, consequently, becomes a permanent resident of the aquarium. Years later, she gives birth to a male dolphin at the aquarium.This story provides a wonderful insight into the dolphin world. The reader learns all about dolphin families and how they behave with their human trainers in an aquarium environment. The book also keeps the reader's interest as the story of Aster and Bob unfolds. The mother dolphin and her son are dearly loved by all at the aquarium, however, their antics cause great problems for the aquarium staff!I thoroughly enjoyed this book and highly recommend it. It is interesting, it is funny, and it is sad. But most of all, it is a great way to learn more about these marvelous and intelligent mammals!

my favorite part was when the little dolphin jumped over the wall into the show pool. it is a very good reference book on dolphins. it is a good learning book, and also fun to read !! katie p -- age 9
