This review is from: Fish with Cards (First Discovery Books) (Spiral-bound)
My 2 year old, as well as my 4 year old nephew, enjoy reading this book over and over. I, too, have learned more about the different fish in the sea!I plan to purchase four additional books in this series today, as Christmas presents.

Starts okay, then fizzles,
This review is from: Fish with Cards (First Discovery Books) (Spiral-bound)
This series is an imitation of the Eyewitness format for younger readers. It is most appropriate for ages 2-5.
The first two-page spread is promising, full of scientific tipdbits about the anatomy of fish, but already there is an error: "The skeleton of the fish is made of bones." Well, sometimes. Sometimes, it's made of cartilege. Soon, it dissolves into randomness and pointlessness. There's a page showing fish running away from a hungry eel, and they don't even bother to mention that eels are fish, too. Then the next spread is a list of saltwater fish "you might see in the fish market." Though that is probably true in France, where the book was first published, there are few places in the U.S. where you can buy a cat shark or "sting skate"! (I assume they actually mean stingray...) Flounders lie on the ocean floor to "play hide-and-seek"! In addition, something went very wrong with the translation on one page, which shows how to fish for...minnows. Six-inch minnows, I might add. Because of its incoherency and errors, this books is one to skip.
