My son loves it
This book is far and away my sonโs favorite. We read through it every night and he absolutely adores all of the pictures. Heโs 2.5 but he can tell you every single sea creature in the book at this point! Itโs informative and well made and Iโd suggest it to anyone who is interested in ocean life or who has children who are.

Excellent book
My 4 year-old son is a huge fan of the show Octonauts, and, while obviously not marketed as such, this is the PERFECT companion book for kids who want to learn more about ocean life. This has information in it on some of his favorite sea creatures along with some great pictures and fun facts. It's also provided a great opportunity to introduce the concept of indexes and glossaries since he wants to search for some of his favorite sea creatures. Definitely recommend!

My 3-year old grandson loves this book!
Although delivery of this book was very late (almost one month) for his birthday, he loves the book. He spends a lot of time everyday looking at it. He already knows all the names of the animals (specific names like hammerhead shark).
