Seahorses by Elizabeth Laskey

A seahorse is really a fish and there are at least 32 species found in all of the world's oceans excepting the North and South poles. They have virtually no enemies, that is except humans who have used them in medicines, souvenirs, and kept them as pets. The most amazing fact about seahorses is that the males have the babies! This book contains beautiful photographs of seahorses in their natural habitats and focuses on ways we can save seahorses so that we may tresure them for years to come. 3rd graders and up will find this book enterteinign and informational.

Genre: Nonfiction
