Description
Readers will be mesmerized by prehistoric and modern fish and amphibians alike as they tour through this striking volume all about water-dwelling creatures. They'll learn the anatomy of sharks, the communicative power of different colors between fish, and how even something as seemingly simple as a tail can mean wildly different structures and shapes for different species. Readers will also jump out of the water to discover the diverse world of toads, salamanders, newts, and more, learning about the amazing adaptations of the amphibious world. History of myths involving fish and amphibians, explanations of commercial fishing, and discussions of endangered species provide a human connection for students as well.
