This guide to our planet’s oceans explains every important detail of underwater life. From the vast range of marine organisms and unique habitats to human exploration and the impact of pollution, this book is packed with fascinating facts and transporting illustrations. While the book is aimed at older children with an interest in ocean life, the information inside has the power to amaze both children and adults alike. The detailed food web will help readers understand the ocean hierarchy, while lifelike illustrations show how animals can swarm in unison and display expert camouflage to avoid becoming a meal.

Life isn’t all about sole survival in the seas though, and one chapter explores the creatures who thrive by working together. The beautiful contrast in artwork complements the author’s inclusive coverage of all areas of the ocean. With the explosion of colourful corals to the weird monster-like fish that lurk in the darkest depths, this book will provide readers with a much greater understanding of life beneath the blue blanket than what they usually observe from the shore.
