Dive into a watery world where many wonderful fish of all shapes and sizes swim, in rivers, lakes, and oceans.

Become an eyewitness to the fascinating world of fish, in this picture-led reference guide that will take you on a visual tour of the many different types of species and the ecosystems they live in. Children will be mesmerized by striking color photographs of tropical fish, eels, seahorses, and more, with a unique "eyewitness" view of the natural history of fish, how they behave, and how they survive.

This unique, beautifully illustrated guide reveals the lethal jaws of a piranha, a porcupine fish "puffing up", how a dogfish swims, growth rings on a fish scale, what a fish looked like 400 million years ago, and a fish with legs! Using striking full-color photographs and illustrations, discover how a school stays together, why some fish swim upside down, how a stingray stings, and why fish need water to breathe, and much more.
