Great Introduction to the Deep Ocean I am somewhat familiar with deep ocean exploration and this book does a great job of describing the experience. I like that the text is simple so that a young reader can enjoy it alone but it also has scientific names of deep sea features and creatures for older readers and this makes it a nice resource book as well.Quite accurate depiction of the seagoing experience.The terminology is very accurate as are the pictures.I read this book several times before I gave it as a gift for a young child.. Very educational R. Hansen This book is full of facts and pictures about the ocean. My four year old loves to read it over and over.
Open this underwater exploration guide, and journey to the darkest depths of the oceans. Water covers almost three-fourths of our planet's surface, yet many of us have never seen what lies far beneath the waves. Filled with intriguing facts and colorful illustrations, this book examines the history and science of diving, the different ocean zones, and the future of undersea research. Full color.
