"Young ocean lovers will treasure ... this remarkable introduction to sealife. A fascinating peek at the creatures who populate our oceans."—Publishers Weekly 

If you lived in the sea, would you dive to the depths of cold, murky water or fly high above warm coastal waves? With animals grouped according to opposite traits and shared characteristics, this rhyming adventure inspires readers to imagine what it would be like to live in the sea. From a grazing dugong rooting about to an elephant seal with an inflatable snout, children will learn about a wide variety of beloved and obscure sea creatures that live in our world's oceans and seas. Curious minds can delve deeper into the extensive back matter.

The Who Would You Be? series invites readers to embark on rhyming adventures throughout different habitats around the world, while imagining what it might be like to live in those places as different types of creatures. Sparking joy and curiosity for ecosystems and the species who inhabit them, readers will discover that all creatures play important roles in their ecosystems, regardless of their size, shape, appearance, or lifestyle.

JULIE HONAN JOHNSTON grew up in Kansas City, Missouri, almost a thousand miles from the nearest ocean. When she and her four siblings took their first plunge in the stormy Pacific, the intrigue was instant. She went on to discover many more oceans and lands and has shared her passion for these places as an educator and writer. Though she doesn't currently live in the sea, she and her family live delightfully close to the Pacific Ocean in Berkeley, California. If You Lived in the Sea, Who Would You Be? is her first book for children. To find out more about Julie, visit juliehonanjohnston.com.
