Welcome to Litsy!

“There are four main types of scale: cycloid and ctenoid, which are found on the bony fish.”

The pictures are beautiful and so vivid and detailed

This book is a very informative guide to all things fish. This is not very interesting to me just because I don‘t care so much for fish, but this would be great for kids who are fascinated by the ocean and the fish living in it. The photographs are also stunning to look at. Thank

“Most fishes are covered with a layer of thin, transparent plates called scales, which overlap like shingles on a roof”

Not a book I would recommend for early childhood children. Too wordy and dull

1988, nonfiction. Informational book about numerous types of fish. Too much wording covering all the pages. Pictures are dull and not very eye catching. Does have a lot of information that is very detailed.
