A poetic read-aloud that celebrates our planet's underwater worlds and opens to create a free-standing globe.

Younger readers are invited to explore and experience the astonishing underwater ecosystems of our blue planet through rhyming verse and exuberant illustrations: from freshwater ponds to the deepest ocean depths, streams and rivers, to coral reefs and polar waters.

Secondary text provides more detailed, curriculum-focused facts and encourages readers to learn about different plants and animals found in various aquatic habitats around the world. This informative tribute to our blue planet is sure to inspire readers to get out, explore the aquatic worlds around them, and learn more about our planet.

This sturdy and beautiful book, which, like others in the same series (Our World and Our Seasons), opens into a freestanding 3D globe, makes the perfect gift for young readers, encouraging them to explore our planet’s vital aquatic ecosystems through its ingenious and engaging pages.

For ages 3–7
