Exceptional and strange forms of sea life are hers discussed and shown with 45 black and white drawings. Fiendish fish, like the Manta Ray, ingen creatures like the Hermit Crab who rolls down hill when pursued by an enemy, the lazy hitch-hiking Remora, and other forms of life, finned and clawed, are shown and described. The text is factual and simple. Not an encyclopedia of icthyology, this simply spotchecks fish of various types and sizes ranging from plankton to Blue Whales.
