Dive into this lushly photographed book and discover all the things the ocean can be!"Salt and surf and sand and waves,
The oceans these and more . . . "
To the animals that live there, the ocean is much more than a huge blue body of water. For frisky sea lions, it is a fun-filled playground. For toothy sharks, it is a dentists office. And for hungry otters, its a cafeteria that serves their favorite food—shellfish.
These playful verses and stunning photographs will take you on an exhilarating underwater tour. Jump in!
