Fishing (Hardcover, Us ed.)

The America at Work series introduces young children to the people, machines and environmental concerns involved in two leading resource-based industries. Fishing explains how fish farmers in Maine raise salmon and halibut, and traces the fascinating life journey of a wild salmon in Alaska. In Mining, kids explore an underground mine, a surface coal mine and an oil drilling site. Combining fact and fiction with colorful illustrations, these stories deliver an early lesson in appreciating and protecting our natural resources.
