Madison's African Rivers

Come explore the big rivers of Africa! This book shows the fishes and animals that make the Congo and Nile rivers home. Odd shaped elephant fishes, catfish, colorful cichlids and barbs, puffers, and toothy tigerfish swim. Elephants, giraffes, hippos, and crocodiles feed along the shores. Real species and real ecosystems make this book a good educational book for younger and older readers. At the end is an identification guide to use at zoos, aquariums, or in the wild. This is the ninth book in the Fishes and Whales series but stands on its own. The mighty waters of Africa await!
