Food Chains in a Pond

It can be hard to see what's going on under the surface of a pond, but there's certainly a lot of activity! Fish, tadpoles, ducks, and more depend on each other for sustenance. They also rely on plants and insects in and around the pond. A food chain is a useful way to visually understand the interdependence of organisms within a pond. Similarly, a food web shows how food chains connect within a pond ecosystem. This comprehensible volume, a valuable addition to any STEM library, will introduce budding scientists to pond food chains. Interesting photographs, diagrams, and fact boxes add interest to the accessible curricular concepts.
