Paul J. McManus, LSP, PWS and President, EcoTec, Inc.—“Explore Rivers and Ponds! introduces limnology and wetland science to kids in a way that works—with busy hands and muddy boots. The text is interwoven with the terminology of the science, with handy definitions that will have meaning to young readers. Teachers will find the book’s simple projects do-able, engaging, and educational.”
