Animals & Wildlife

This book allows the reader to examine the fascinating environment of the pond to see how plants and animals survive in this watery environment. Each spread deals with a different form of life found in ponds - from the fringed water lily to the great pond snail. The photographs, accompanied by text, attempt to bring the reader closer to the wildlife that inhabits freshwater ponds. Illustrations show the scale of each plant and animal.
