Pacific Paradise or NOT?

This is my book review. I am  learning to summarize in my own words and form an opinion.                        Pacific Paradise By Mary Campbell Image result for pacific paradise eel book 
What I have read is Pacific Paradise. This book is mostly about eels in New Zealand. the life cycle about eels and how they lay their eggs.   
First of all, This is the life cycle of an eel, im sure you want to know this. First they start off as eggs, as they grow a bit older they turn into larvae. then they would turn into glass eel. After that they would grow older and turn into elver. after all of that they finally turn into adults and reach full maturity. Here is a picture to demonstrate the life cycle of eels.

For the last part of this is them as adults about to lay their eggs.
So, how do they lay their eggs? Well it takes awhile, but they have to make their way upstream to make it to the ocean. Well when they finally make it it is time to lay their eggs. Once they have laid all their eggs they are so so exhausted, they die. Then off their eggs go to make it back to the creek to start their new lives.

I found this article very interesting and helpful. I enjoyed learning about the life cycle of an eel and knowing how they lay their eggs.  

Well there you go, that is all I have to share with you today.
Wait a sec, one question, what cool exciting books have you read lately? Comment down below to let me know. See ya later.

My next steps:

    Hi my name is Sita and I am from Gilberthorpe School.
    I really like that blog post that you have done.
    I like how you wrote down what the book is about and what you learnt it is really cool.
    I also like how you told us about the adults and their eggs.
    Maybe next time you do a blog post about this, (if you do) you should put up a picture of them in real life instead of the book but even if you didn't do that I still really like that blog post!!!
    Keep up the COOL work!!!
