5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent,
This review is from: Life in an Estuary (Ecosystems in Action) (Hardcover)
This is a wonderful book:scientifically accurate (and I can judge that as I am an oceanographer) and clearly and beautifully written. I spent many years living near and working on the Chesapeake Bay and I consider this one of the best children's books on the subject.
