Barrons Books Tropical Freshwater
Aquarium Fish fromA to Z
Eli has many different interests. He loves balls, cars, airplanes, Elmo, Ernie, Cookie Monster, dinosaurs, animals, but most of all he loves sea creatures, especially fish. He is obsessed with them. I read that it is normal for his age group to become attached to certain things, but I am just amazed with his attention span; he never gets board of fish. He is just super excited about fish from the minute he wakes up until he goes to bed. He has a few fish toys that he pretends to swim around in the air. He loves to watch fish and most of all the loves his "Fishy Gook" Before we got the "Fishy Gook" he would only look at one page of his animal book, the fish page. Now he only looks at his "Fishy Gook". For a fish enthusiast like Eli it is the perfect book. According to the editor it "Literally has hundreds of different tropical and freshwater fish that are shown in vivid color photos and described for aquarium hobbyists. These pocket-sized handbooks are handsome and practical quick-reference sources for pet owners, pet fanciers, obsessed toddlers, and aquarium and terrarium hobbyists." We look at the book daily and I read him the descriptions of all the different fish. From Eli's fascination I've learned a lot about fish.

I know what you mean about toddler obsessions! Anson is 2 1/2 and is obsessed with the Incredibles and Toy Story - especially Dash and Buzz Lightyear. He has some Pixar figures and carries them around everywhere. It is funny when he brings them into a room and then we move to another room so he gathers them all up and carries them to the new room and sets them up again. Too funny! The fish sound cool though. At least you get to learn about them. Keeps the mind sharp that gets dull from too much kid conversation!
