Goldendoodle
by Kathryn Lee Mary BloomHere's a colorful and fun introductory guide to a colorful and fun dog, the Goldendoodle. Author Kathryn Lee, a dedicated breeder of Goldendoodles, may be this designer dog's American patroness, and her book pours forth with her admiration and love of these unique, versatile dogs on every page. A crossbreed of the Golden Retriever and the Poodle, the Goldendoodle continues to win new fans across the nation, due, in no small part, to the appeal and intelligence of its two parent breeds. The only book available on this popular hypoallergenic designer dog, Goldendoodle offers owners sensible information about acquiring a sound and healthy puppy, raising and training, grooming, feeding, and exercising the dog. The final chapter of the book on breeding the Goldendoodle is the author's candid and insightful take on how a designer dog is created and how, in her opinion, the Goldendoodle exceeds both its wonderful parent breeds.

Goldenlocks and the Three Pirates
by April Jones PrinceA fun and clever picture book retelling of Goldilocks—with pirates!Once upon a seaworthy sloop lived three pirates: the big, pilfering Papa, the medium-sized, menacing Mama, and the small, bonny Baby, a pirate-in-training. They were excellent pirates, but not very good housekeepers, so their gruel wasn't tasty, their stools weren't sturdy, and their hammocks weren't hung properly. Luckily for them, Goldenlocks happened along when they were out for a row in the harbor. April Jones Prince's rollicking text and Steven Salerno's swashbuckling paintings make Goldenlocks and the Three Pirates a first-rate adventure and a spirited take on Goldilocks.

Goldfish Development and Evolution
by Kinya G. OtaThis book explains how the beautiful goldfish body develops from a single fertilized egg and how this developmental process was changed during the process of domestication. The contents can be categorized as follows: i) numerous high-quality live photo images of embryonic and larval stage goldfish, ii) detailed descriptions of skeletogenesis with fluorescent microscopic and histological images, iii) the most advanced interpretation of the relationship between artificial selection and developmental processes, iv) future perspectives of the application of the genome editing techniques for the ornamental goldfish breeding, and v) methodological descriptions for goldfish developmental biology. Goldfish is a popular ornamental domesticated fish species, and its highly diverged morphological features and color variations attract fanciers. The goldfish has been spread all over the world by breeders, and this fish has also been employed as an experimental organism by researchers in the field of life science. However, so far, no available scientific books provide a detailed description of the embryogenesis and morphogenesis of this animal. Compared with the number of published fancier books, the number of books on goldfish biology is very few. This publication will be useful not only for the research community particularly in the fields of developmental biology, evolutionary biology, zoology, aquaculture, fishery science, and related areas but also for enthusiastic goldfish fanciers and breeders.
