Our Thoughts:
Jessica Cramp, a marine conservationist, brings her world to life in this fun and educational nonfiction all about our oceans! She explains that her love of sharks has prompted her to show us more about the oceans and the effects that we have on them!
Jess becomes the colorful comic strip character, Captain Aquatica, with her loyal sidekick, a hammerhead shark named Fin. Together, they show us that learning can be really fun.
In typical National Geographic style, there's plenty of text for readers to learn as much as possible about many different aspects of our oceans, with bright, beautiful photographs on every page. There's a Captain Aquatica comic spread at the beginning of every chapter and the chapters are only a handful of pages long.

I especially loved the longer last chapter on saving our oceans!
