PROJECT SEAHORSE is now available
* Kirkus starred review "With striking images of coral-reef inhabitants, this photo-essay introduces Project Seahorse, an international effort to protect and rehabilitate the Danajon Bank, a double reef off a Philippine Island where seahorses once flourished...In information-rich chapters and more narrowly focused double-page insets, the author explains the curious seahorse biology (males give birth), the development of Marine Protected Areas, the lives of local fishers and their families, the use of seahorses in traditional Chinese medicine and local efforts to improve these refuges...This is another splendid demonstration of the work of Scientists in the Field." --Kirkus
