Good easy reader

My four-year-old son loves this book. He spends time looking at the illustrations preferring this volume to many other aquatic animal books in his library, including DK and other newer, more popular volumes. This book is cheap and easily overlooked, but the simple illustrations are engaging. Unlike the DK books, they don't seem to bowl the reader over with too much visual information. I recommend this to all families with young children and to teachers who are looking for high-interest easy readers for the K-3 level classroom.

A nice addition to a young child's science library.

Twenty- four animals that spend alot of time in the water are hallmarked in this little golden book. Young children can see pictures of and learn about the gray seal, porpoise, penguin, polar bear, river otter, hippopotamus. frog, duck, green turtle, crocodile, pelican, beaver, sea horse, octopus, blue whale--- all as babies. Good, brief information with realistic drawings of animals.
