Explores through poetry the certain fish, amphibians, and mammals we find in our oceans, rivers, lakes, streams, and ponds. Includes short accessible poems and collage illustrations of such critters as the Whale, Seahorse, Snapping Turtle, Minnow, and Salamander. Underlying message is that, like us, the critters need pure water to live, feed, and breed.

"These neighbors, Too, don't give a fig about fences. You see them in your yard or on city streets. From some, you run, but they lived here before you...and are your Neighbors"--Dust jacket book flap.
