SPLASH AND BUBBLES: Pole to Pole 



The Reeftown Rangers want to learn all about migration so they set off on a migratory adventure of their own. The Rangers travel from the Antarctic to the Arctic to experience what it’s like to migrate. Along their travels they encounter narwhals, penguins, and humpbacks. By the end of their journey, they cross paths with Melody, a Fin whale, just in time to see her at the krill bloom and learn all about the food chain from the tiny krill to the huge humpback whale. Before heading back to Reeftown, a humpback whale serenades the friends with its beautiful music.
