3.0 out of 5 stars Only 3 stars for "Starfish", July 14, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Starfish (Living Things) (Library Binding)
This is a mediocre children's book on starfish. Every page has a color photo of starfish. The book covers the basics of starfish: some different varieties, eating, movement, etc. Most of the pictures are good/colorful.

Now, the "flaws":

1) There are really only a handful of different types of starfish in the photos. Several of the photos are candy cane starfish in different configurations.

2) Some of the photos span across the binding of the book.

3) There is very little biology info. Nothing in depth whatsoever. Minor description of "feet". Only 2 examples of diet. No description whatsoever of sensory organs.

Overall: an o.k. book, but kids in the target age range are easily able to absorb the fine biological details of such an amazing creature - the book needs to have more depth.
