Hello, you are in high school!

If you prefer other means of research,
you can always check out magazines and books. However, the only books written
on sponges, besides children's illustrated books (way below your level)
are scientific books written by scientists for scientists. Magazines have
only a few articles. Your best bet for research would be the web, but it's
your research!
