Illustrated by
Francisca Marquez.
This lightly rhymed text uses the imperative voice to explain how a tracking robot can follow a shark ("Grip the pup and flip it over / Tag it. Let it go"), while the softly colored illustrations show a research team of one adult and two young people performing the task. Though simplified, this is an engaging introduction to field research in marine biology.
