Dear Kim,
You should find a long list of killer whale books on the Whalenet web
page. They should get you started on your project. One interesting fact
is that a killer whale is not actually a whale - it is the largest member
of the dolphin family. They are also well known for their complex social
structure.
The web page is located at:
http://whale.wheelock.edu/whalenet-stuff/ed_resources.html
Look under the bibliographies section.
Good luck finding your information.
