Young children are natural problem-solvers and always looking for answers, especially when it involves interesting animals. This Spanish-language edition of Scaly Swimmers provides young curious readers with striking visual clues and simply written hints. Using the photos and text, readers rely on visual literacy skills, reading, and reasoning as they solve the animal mystery. Clearly written facts give readers a deeper understanding of how the animal lives. Additional text features, including a glossary and an index, help students locate information and learn new words.

El libro de Claudio Campagna está escrito a dos aguas. Es, por una parte, el estudio de un científico sin ser un libro de ciencia. Por otro lado, es una obra en la cual la información no se presenta de un modo independiente de la experiencia, del relato de los vagabundos en las playas, las emociones del autor. Semejante a los relatos de los antiguos naturalistas, Sobre la foca elefante. Historias naturales de la Patagonia es disfrutable tanto para científicos como lectores curiosos.
