About this title

Synopsis

This wondrous tour of coral reefs will thoroughly delight young children. Dr. Earle’s brief, informative text and Wolcott Henry’s dazzling close-up photographs introduce boys and girls to 12 different fish that dwell in the waters surrounding the reefs. Enchanting gobies pop out at the camera, jewel-like damselfish glimmer, a spotted stingray glides through the deep. Meeting these creatures eye to eye as they glide through clumps of coral, children will marvel at the teeming life in these underwater realms—and will be eager to explore them further.
