Bobby Bluegill

"This is the true-to-life story of a bluegill and how he lived."

The author, a conservationist, writes about fish ecology and food chains in a small pond on a farm through a story narrative.  The story stars Bobby Bluegill, one of many thousands of fish born in the pond one spring, and Jerry, a boy who lives on the farm.  Jerry learns about the food chains and pond environment and how to maintain healthy conditions for the fish and other animals surrounding the pond.
