The review indicates that this book is appropriate for children 4 to 8 years of age. The words in the book are appropriate for that age range and it has very good pictures and presents in an extremely short form the sinking of the Edmund Fitzgerald. It also references a couple of other ships that sank. Personally, I would rather stick to lighthearted/silly books to read to my children or for my ...             Kilroy and the Gull (Trophy I Can Read Books) Nathaniel Benchley Trophy Pr, 1978 Captured and trained to be a marineland sensation, Kilroy, a killer whale, escapes to life on the open sea with his friend Morris the sea gull.             Gulls: Guide to Identification2 reviews P. J. Grant Princeton University Press, 1997 Great descriptions and photos leave you wishing for more. This is it: this book will enable you to master the gulls. This book, and hundreds or thousands of hours studying the birds, that is. Gulls are a pain, and no book can change that.

The hundreds of photographs (inappropriate for a field guide, but perfect for a supplemental guide) are themselves a reason to ...             Ebb & Flo and the Greedy Gulls3 reviews Aladdin, 2003 Ebb & Flo and the Greedy Gulls Ebb is a dog and Flo, a girl of 6-9 years old is her owner.

Howell Houghton Mifflin, 2007 The best book on gulls EVER! This is the best book on gulls ever! There are at least ten full color, extremely detailed photos for each species.
