Ocean Buddies, Life in the Salty Seas Timid Around the Octopus and Orca, Wary of Sharks and Squids

An informative yet playful introduction to animals that live in the ocean. Starting at the shallow seashore, a pretend underwater journey takes the reader deeper & deeper, seeing everything from fiddlers to hermits to flounders & humpbacks. The fun-filled text treats young readers to entertaining animal behavior such as the wacky courtship of crustaceans, the treacherous journey of a newborn sea turtle, & the desperate battle of two deep sea giants. The beautiful full page B&W illustrations not only enhance the story, but make OCEAN BUDDIES a visual stand out. OCEAN BUDDIES is the second book in a series striving to encourage a sense of familiarity, acceptance, & guardianship toward inhabitants of particular regions. Great for parents, teachers, environmentalists, & anyone concerned with encouraging children to appreciate other living things. The 70# paper is perfect for coloring with crayons, colored pencils, or markers, but this book is much more than a coloring book. Also available in the series, DESERT BUDDIES, featuring animals of the southwestern desert.
