It's a big day for a father seahorse. For a month he has been carrying his babies in a special pouch on his tummy. Now the young seahorses are ready to begin their lives in the ocean.

With a series of pushes, he gives birth to 1,000 tiny babies. As the seahorse babies swim away, his protective role as their father is over. In this book, young readers will discover the unusual life cycle of seahorses. The fascinating text is accompanied by beautiful, detailed photographs.

  • Learn how a pair of seahorses mate for life and live amongst the seaweed on a coral reef.
  • See how the mother seahorse transfers her eggs to the father's body.
  • And discover how a father seahorse carries the pair's eggs and then their babies in his body.
