| Resource Description
|
| ONE NIGHT IN THE CORAL SEA. Collard. Describes one of nature’s most amazing spectacles. In 1984, scientists on Australia’s Great Barrier Reef discovered that dozens of the reef’s coral species spawned all at the same time - more than 135 of the reef’s 340 species of corals! Fish and other predators are overwhelmed by the sheer mass, leaving most of the fertilized eggs to float away, increasing the eggs’ chances of establishing new coral colonies elsewhere. Features beautiful drawings that encourage protection of coral reefs while at the same time teaches basic reproductive concepts (through the coral fertilization discussions). For readers in grades 4-6. #B-14270, hardcover.
