Synopsis

A Round Goby Searches For Home is a clever book for children about the state and status of the Baltic Sea through the eyes of a round goby. Starting as a fish egg in the Black Sea it takes you on a journey – chapter by chapter – all the way to the Gulf of Finland where the full-grown fish finds a partner. Overfishing, alien species, pollution, and the diversity of the Baltic Sea are only a few issues this book addresses.
