Rays

Flat body floats, Long tail whips, Meet the ray! Brimming with vivid photos and scientific facts, this middle-grade nonfiction book treats researchers and wild animal lovers to a comprehensive profile of these fascinating fish. It covers zoology topics such as anatomy, diet, habitat, and life cycle, as well as species conservation efforts and the sea creatures' relationship with humans throughout history. Sidebars, a range map, and a glossary support the main text, while a Hindu folktale about the ray adds a cross-curricular cultural layer to the title.
