In the Ocean - by Olivia Cosneau (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

The world's oceans are home to many different species and plants, from tiny organisms like plankton to the world's largest animal, the blue whale. Deep down in the seas' depth, you will even find some monstrous-looking creatures that seem to have come straight out of a fairy tale. Did you know, for example, that male anglerfish feed on the female's blood? And is it true that the giant clam can trap a diver's leg? Or have you ever heard of fish that hitch a ride on sharks?

Review Quotes

"Cosneau's vivid digital illustrations help introduce a variety of aquatic creatures in this addition to the My Nature Sticker Activity Book series. Often-exclamatory observations ("Remoras aren't scared of a thing! Thanks to powerful suckers on top of their heads, they can attach themselves to sharks and other large fish") are joined by prompts that ask readers to color in certain scenes or make use of accompanying stickers ("Stick on the whale's baleen to trap the fish"). The array of intriguing trivia ("When danger nears, porcupinefish swallow water and inflate to triple their size") should hold readers' interest."
