The sixth title in the award-winning `explore & discover series, this book provides children with an opportunity to look under the surface and see what special creatures live around New Zealands freshwater habitats our creeks, rivers, lakes and wetlands.

Included in this title are animals ranging from the familiar pukeko to the rarely seen bittern, from the iconic eel to tiny whitebait, and some of the many barely known aquatic insects.

Swimmable and drinkable fresh water are hot topics, and this book shows that many native animals depend on healthy waterways for a habitat, and their presence is often used as a sign of the waters health.

Beautifully illustrated and impeccably researched, this is a wonderful and intriguing way for children to learn about New Zealands freshwater environments.
