fish. They do not have gills or fins like fish normally do. Their manner
of moving is also quite different from fish. While fish, use their tails,
starfish have tiny tube feet on their stomachs! These feet help them
move along. Not all starfish have only five arms. Some have as many
as forty! Do you know the most exciting thing about starfish? If a
predator attacks them, they can drop one of the arms and get away!
Then they grow that arm again over a year.
