On Wednesday, Mr. and Mrs. Fish of South Portland, Maine (a.k.a. Jeff and Deb Sandler) dropped by the Loker School to ask the kindergarten classes to help solve a mystery: Who was drilling holes in clam shells found on the beach?

In the context of investigating this mystery, the Sandlers provided many interesting facts about ocean life, and presented several marine creatures in the form of Mr. Fish in costume.

"It is generally stressful for live creatures to be used in presentations, so this is a preferable approach," said Mrs. Fish.  "The costumes are both scientifically accurate, and very entertaining for the children."

The Fishes/Sandlers have been performing their educational acts for 33 years.  Their tour has taken them to 20 countries, including Indonesia and Samoa.

In addition to their traveling marine education program, Mr. and Mrs. Fish operate a summer "Fish camp."  For more information about the Fishes, visit www.mrandmrsfish.com.
