Take a deep dive into the depths of our blue planet with this stunning book all about the ocean - Earth's largest biome.

In Oceans at Work, beautiful illustrations and striking photographs combine to help readers explore how humans interact with the ocean and how we have come to depend on it for travel, food and fun. Investigate our use of the seas from seaweed farms to fishing boats, and from whaling to a world cruises. It will inspire young readers to think about how human activity is at times harming our world and the delicate balance of life in ocean and coastal habitats around the world.

Each title includes a map of the world highlighting each ocean and what phenomena occur there.

Oceans at Work

Claudia Martin has worked in book publishing for 17 years. She is the author of several books and websites for children and young people. Her favourite subjects are history, current affairs and technology. Born and bred in Kent, I always loved painting and drawing and wanted to do something in Art when I grew up. I studied at The Kent Institute of Art Design specialising in illustration, after graduating I started working on encyclopaedias and interpretation boards, while building up my portfolio which led to work in the publishing and magazine sectors. Above all I love to capture detail whilst working mostly in watercolour, as well as acrylic and pencil, but I also enjoy the softer feel of pastels for landscapes. I am now proudly represented by Advocate Art and it's being with them that as enabled me to branch out into other areas of illustration, such as greetings cards, books and jigsaws which I love.
