Our Blue Planet is amazing and in need of our help. Climate change and city encroachment are altering our planet. The oceans provide vital necessities for all living animals, including humans. From the deep, to the coral reefs, to the green seas, to the coasts, to the big blue, the drama of life is taking place between predator's and prey who create many ways to defend themselves. We need to do many things to help save our blue planet such as power down, plant and protect trees, become a sea -life spotter, use less plastics, and reduce, reuse, and recycle. This strikingly illustrated book that contains a forward from David Attenborough, describes in detail the various habitats of the sea. Stewart-Sharpe clearly details the characteristics of each area of the oceans. Also contained in the book's pages are many interesting tidbits about the sea's inhabitants. Much time can be spent with the many illustrated examples of sea life. This book is a great way to introduce children to protecting our planet.
