Publisher's Synopsis
In this fun, fact-filled book, children learn that elephant seals can weigh up to 5,000 pounds and can hold their breath underwater for over an hour, that the eyes of giant squids are the largest in the animal kingdom, and much, much more. Plus youngsters get to read "A Pond for Maddie," a short story that teaches them how to make an artificial pond where goldfish can live year round in the wild.
