Great for beginning fish enthusiasts
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
My six year old son loves this book. He nearly wore out a copy from the local library before we purchased this for him. It's not a complete guide (he wouldn't be able to carry it around in his school bag if it were!) but it more than satisfies his curiosity in fish and different species. He enjoys the pictures, but the descriptions also answer his major questions (how big is it, what does it eat, where does it live, etc). If you're looking for in-depth, textbook descriptions, you'll want something else, but if you would like a basic, "what kind of fish is that" book for North American fish, this is great.
This book is a great overview of the fish kingdom.
