Celebrate the wonders of the world’s oceans in this spellbinding story from an award-winning author and illustrator pair.
We humans mostly live on land – so, we think that land is the most important thing there is. But if you look at Earth from space, you see our planet isn’t green or brown, like the land. It’s blue.
Discover how all the oceans of the world are connected in this fascinating picture book. When two children find a “sea heart” seed on the beach, they dive into a journey that reveals the magnificent variety of life underwater. From swimming with sharks to soaring over spectacular coral reefs, follow the journey and discover the wonders beneath the waves.
Written by expert zoologist Nicola Davies, with captivating illustrations from the award-winning Jenni Desmond, this is a book to share with and inspire young nature lovers.
"Get inspired by Nicola's wonderful books for kids of all ages" - Steve Backshall
