A Place for Fish Melissa Stewart

Fish make our world a better place.
But sometimes people do things that make it hard for them to live and grow.

In simple yet informative language, A PLACE FOR FISH introduces young readers to ways human action or inaction can affect fish populations and opens kids minds to a wide range of environmental issues. Describing various examples from Florida s spotted trunkfish to the Atlantic salmon the text provides an intriguing look at fish, at the ecosystems that support their survival, and at the efforts of some people to save them.

At the end of the book, the author offers readers a list of things they can do to help protect these special creatures in their own communities.

Artist Higgins Bond s glorious full-color illustrations vividly and accurately depict the fish and their surroundings.
