Short & Sweet Mar 25, 2000 I enjoyed this book as it was concise and full of rich detail. A highlight is that it compares and contrasts the many salmon species. It is an excellent resource for a classroom!

OK intro but it's only a beginning. Mar 01, 2007
By I. J Zelo This book provides a very quick and general overview of salmon. It briefly touches on each species and the issues that they face. Good intro to the fish but definitely requires follow up.
Good tables that identify the habitat and spawning needs of each species.
Good life cycle illustration.
I agree that it would be good for a young audience.
