by Cathryn Sill (Author) John Sill (Illustrator)
Un lenguaje sencillo y fácil de entender para enseñar a los niños las características básicas de qué son los peces, cómo nadan, respiran y se reproducen, y explica las diferentes formas en que se protegen de los depredadores. Con pinturas realistas bellamente detalladas, el destacado ilustrador de vida silvestre John Sill presenta a los lectores la diversidad de la población de peces, desde una trucha ártica hasta un pez puercoespín.
Un epílogo proporciona más detalles, lo que inspira un mayor aprendizaje. Este libro es ideal para la primera infancia y las unidades elementales de ciencia, medio ambiente y vida marina.

PreS-Gr 4--Sill introduces the concepts of camouflage and defense mechanisms within the context of the fish world in a simple and concise manner. The husband and wife team collaborate for another successful entry in their early science "About..." series. As in the other titles in the series, the realistic full-bleed illustrations will mesmerize readers, while the text provides easy-to-follow information. However, an unfortunate sentence placement gives the impression that fish and their environs should be protected solely for the commercial, recreational, and food value that benefits humanity. The Spanish translation of the original English text is easily accessible. An appendix is included. The bibliography and web links are English-only resources. VERDICT The author and illustrator provide engaging information about the multifaceted ecosystem of fish. A serviceable addition to any STEAM curriculum.--Mary Margaret Mercado, Pima County Public Library, Tucson, AZ
