Opis

Not since "Jonathan Livingston Seagull" will you be so captivated by the antics of a Herring Gull as you will be by reading the beach book entitled "A Sea Gull's Realm." First, let me introduce you to Garth, the sea gull who is the hero of this tale. Garth and Jonathan share characteristics such as the will to overcome adversity, perseverance, inner strength and loyalty. They differ in that Jonathan exists in a mythical world of human values. Garth exists in the real world of sea gulls, yet is able to project similar human-like qualities. The story takes place on Long Beach Island, a barrier island off the coast of New Jersey. It makes fascinating reading for readers of all ages, especially those who have had the opportunity to observe these captivating birds in their natural setting. It is a powerful teaching tool that presents a naturalist's account of the physical characteristics, behavior and calls of gulls within the context of Garth's antics as he interacts with his fisherman friend and other gulls who dare to invade his chosen territory. In this fictionalized account, each chapter is based upon the actual observed behavior of Garth. The account is both revealing and exciting. Having read this book, you will never again observe gulls circling above as you have in the past. You will find yourself searching for the Garths in the flock, and if you are lucky, you may come face to face with Garth the seagull.
