I read the original book to my class of 1st graders. This book is the same, except the size of the book is maybe 8X10. The original book is approx. 14X24. The larger book was good for large classes, whereas the smaller is good for groups of 15 or less.
The creator of this book is a marine biologist, and the colorful overlays of his underwater photographs are so interesting, they make the text's general lack of flow (hence, the three star rating) seem less important. Both rare and more familiar fish are showcased, and notes in the back of the book identify them all. Some of the more fierce-looking fish presented are so intense they might be scary to sensitive younger readers, but they were not so for my two-year-old, who really liked puring over all the pages of this book.
I ordered this product as a replacement for the same book that my brother accidentally ripped. It turned out that this book was smaller compared to the original; it would have been better if the size was indicated. But overall, the contents was the same and the book was crisp.
This book was a of little use to me so I passed it on the the thrift store. A much better book on fish faces is Fishface by David Doubilet published by [...] Hundreds of spectacular photosshane
