Simon & Schuster Children's Guide to Sea Creatures

This books is excellent. I got it for a 5 year old (even though it was advertised as 'from Age 8'). He loved it and we went through every creature in the book on the first sitting. The drawings and pictures are great, and there is just enough text for a child of that age to get to grips with. I recommend this highly for any child who loves their sea creatures!

Fantastic book for any child who is interested in sea life. I purchased this for my 4 year old great nephew who loved it ( had to sit and read it with him in one go!) although the book is marketed for over 8 year olds. Good pictures with simple to understand information about each creature. I would recommend this book.

Good educational book for kids

0ur grandson loved the book.

Lovely book for children and adults.

Je trouve le livre bien fait pour un jeune public et la qualité des illustrations est supérieure à ce qu'on trouve habituellement. Quelques pages de plus auraient été les bienvenues

Bought this for my youngest (9) child and she loves it! Obsessed with everything ocean this helps keep her interested and learning. It contains sections: Seashore, Open Ocean, Seabed, Deep Sea, Coral Reef, and Polar Seas. Filled with various animals some popular and others a bit rare but overall I often catch her reading it here and there. One of her favorite books.

This was the best book I found in looking for something to do a unit on sea animals with my daughter (we homeschool). We are doing simple file folders of basic facts and picture of each animal and this was the ticket. Instead of having to look through lots of books and piece it together, this book is almost like a little dictionary of sea creatures. Probably about 3 animals to a page with an illustration and just the basic facts in about 3 sentences on each animal. Since that was all we wanted, it fit the bill. It's not in debth on the animals, just a short overview.

Wonderful comprehensive book about marine life. My 4 yr. old grandson finds the pictures fascinating, and the text will continue to interest him once he learns to read. More academic than fun, better for a very inquisitive child.
