Dive into the wonders of ocean life with this celebration of sea creatures
Why do octopuses have eight arms? Why do crabs run sideways? Are jellyfish made of jelly? Yuval Zommer's beautifully illustrated exploration of ocean life provides delightful answers to these and countless other fascinating questions that curious children ask about the underwater world.
This large-format treasure takes young readers on an enchanting journey through the seas, from sun-dappled surface waters to the mysterious depths of the ocean floor. Each page bursts with wonderfully quirky illustrations that bring to life the slipperiest, scaliest, and most surprising sea creatures—from familiar friends like sea turtles, whales, and sharks to more unusual characters like dragonets, gulper eels, and boxfish.
More than just a beautiful picture book, this is a comprehensive guide that explains how different sea animals breathe, move, and survive underwater. Zommer thoughtfully explores various ocean habitats—from bustling coral reefs to tranquil rock pools—whilst gently introducing important conservation themes, helping children understand their role in protecting our blue planet.
Nominated for the prestigious Kate Greenaway Medal and featuring a playful "find the sardine" game on every page, this is the third beloved instalment in Yuval Zommer's award-winning Big Book series that encourages children to explore and care for our natural world.
Suitable for children aged 5-8 years.
Format: 34 × 23 cm hardcover, 64 pages, full colour
