Really high quality, nicely produced book – the text is balanced well with the beautiful illustrations and is generally a lovely reference/text book on the subject.
My 8 year old is OBSESSED with sealife and will absolutely adore this.

Well written and fairly comprehensive. Only downside is that the classification is by fish type and if like me you don’t know what they are (which is why you bought the book) it makes it difficult to find out what you are looking for. Would have preferred the classification by area of likely sighting (I.e. By sea, gulf, river etc)

Spend a lot of time fishing and spearfishing and this is just a goldmine. Can spend hours skimming through it and learning new information. Remember having similar one as a kid.
