Book desription: Naturegraph Publishers, 2009. Paperback. New Book. Paperback. Having then recently retired from teaching, Gee wrote a 1996 account of the life of fish for the US Fish and Wildlife Service education for primary schools. Here she integrates scientific information into a story for adult or upper teenage readers illustrating the life cycle of a particular species of salmon from its birth in the northwest rivers to its life in the ocean and return to its birth place to spawn. Among the stages of the trip are swim-up fry, stream predators, Wooley Creek Refuge, a smolt in the estuary, shark strike, salmon trollers, homing, and spawning. Nature illustrators Kim and Philipe Villard, her daughter and son-in-law, debut a new technique of mixed-media graphics. (©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR)
