Melissa Gish: Piranhas, Gebunden

Blurb

Scaly body thrashes ... Razor teeth rip ... Meet the piranha! Brimming with vivid photos and scientific facts, Piranhas treats middle-grade researchers and wild animal lovers to a comprehensive profile of this fearsome freshwater fish. It covers zoology topics such as anatomy, diet, habitat, and life cycle, as well as species conservation efforts and the animal's relationship with humans throughout history. Sidebars, a range map, and a glossary support the main text, while a piranha tale from Brazil adds a cross-curricular cultural layer to the title.
