River Monsters: Goonch Catfish (Hardcover)

Lurking in deep river basins in southeast Asia, goonch catfish have super sharp teeth that point backwards. Once they snap onto prey, they don't let go. Exciting, leveled text, thrilling photos, and colorful infographics reel in struggling and reluctant readers as they learn about this predatory fish's natural habitat, what it eats, how it hunts, and any threats to its existence. A great animal diversity resource for hi-lo nonfiction. Includes a table of contents, a glossary with pronunciations, further resources, and an index to enhance comprehension.
