The Ocean Blue and You

32 pp. | Sleeping Bear | September, 2024 | Trade ISBN 9781534112797 $18.99
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Stephanie Fizer Coleman. A brown-skinned child naps under an umbrella at the beach while dreaming of sea habitats filled with vibrant marine life (nine aquatic creatures are named), from tide pools to coral reefs to kelp forests. The lyrical, often alliterative text and Coleman’s iridescent, textured illustrations soothingly bring the ocean’s wonders to life. An informative afterword adds scientific facts and encourages ocean conservation, making this a captivating and educational read for children.
