Beneath the Waves: Celebrating the Ocean Through Pictures, Poems, and Stories

(3) K-3 From the seashore to the depths of the midnight zone and everything in between, ten sections focus on particular habitats ("On the Beach"; "Reef Life"; "Deep Down"); a final chapter dives into "People and Oceans." The well-designed pages invite browsing with striking captioned photos, colorful text bubbles, and the occasional poem. Drimmer's buoyant text takes a closer look at some representative animals, vegetation, and features within each zone. The volume includes an interview with a marine conservationist (and a plea to protect sea life), a foreword by a marine photojournalist, and an afterword by marine biologist Sylvia Earle. "Scientific Names of Ocean Life" and an index are appended.
