I found this book in a used book store in St. Paul, MN. I am a Montessori elementary teacher, and have read it to two different classes that I have taught. The children LOVE it! It is filled with great information and the story is intriguing. I highly recommend it for all children from 6 years+!

I read this book when I was about 8, when I found it at a dime store. It helped me develop a lifelong love of science, dinosaurs and cryptozoology that I continue to have 30 years later. Children with an interest in dinosaurs would love this book about a real living fish thought to have been extinct for millions of years.

5.0 out of 5 stars LOVE this book!, March 20, 2010

I first read this book when I was 14 and I have cherished the memory ever since. It piqued my curiosity and made me a real searcher. I highly recommend it. I have recently found some YouTube footage of coelacanths, and they are among the most graceful slow moving animals I have ever seen. Also look up "The Coelacanth Flip Flop" by Dan Armstrong on YouTube. It is hilarious!
