Oceans - Paperback

by Kate Riggs (Author)

Vast oceans cover most of Earth's surface with shifting currents, varying depths, and a spectrum of salinity. This ecology book introduces beginning readers to underwater worlds where sunlit coral reefs, open pelagic zones, and dark abyssal trenches shape the seascape. Aided by vivid photographs, playful facts, and comic-style speech bubbles, kids will explore ocean features like tidal pools, kelp forests, and deep-sea vents, and discover how dolphins, sea turtles, anglerfish, and phytoplankton survive and flourish. A labeled diagram supports visual learning and deepens understanding. Includes a glossary, index, and recommended books and websites.
