Synopsis:
Dive into a world of aquatic mystery in this action-packed combination of science and adventure as famed National Geographic Explorer Sylvia Earle leads readers on an in-depth tour of life beneath the waves. 

My Thoughts:

Sylvia Earle had her first experience with the ocean at a very young age and has been jumping back into the sea every since!

She shares many of her experiences and adventures in this educational look at the ocean, from her first rogue wave and diving with humpback whales to coral reef dives and even submarine trips!

The ocean is full of surprises and Earle has compiled a great book for kids to learn all about the most extreme aspects of the ocean!

Tsunamis, underwater volcanoes, underwater laboratories, and even famous sunken ships, but also a colorful and diverse array of ocean life, what affects them, and how to protect them!

Split into five chapters, this book covers the oceans of the world, the life within it, diving deep into the depths, and, of course, the things that affect our oceans negatively, such as oil spills, coral bleaching, and plastics, as well what we can do to change that.

As per usual with NatGeoKids books, this is filled with fun little trivia games, quizzes, timelines, and even hands-on activities, this fun nonfiction will give you hours of enjoyment!

 Happy World Oceans Day!
