Illustrated by
Ant Parker.
Rhyming text (some verses a stretch) takes readers on an imaginary ocean dive. The book briefly describes different submarines and their operations and uses. Children will be drawn to the colorful, cartoonish illustrations; however, some of the vocabulary is too complicated for the intended audience and will require adult explanation. A diagram at the end points out and defines submarine parts.
