Lovely photos illustrate this easy reader about pond life. Young readers are introduced to the sights, sounds, and life teeming around a pond environment.

Humane families note: Animals are listed as "things" around the pond along with inanimate objects.

I read this to Julianna today. A prereader book. Short good informational book with beautiful pictures. She gives the book 5 stars. I am reading to her as she is not in mood to read herself. But ahe enjoyed talking about the book as I read it to her.

A simple introduction to ponds, the types of plants and animals found in them, and what people do in and around ponds.

A good pick for families about to visit a pond or classes doing units on ponds. Also a great pick for curious beginning readers.
