From the Look Closer series, this richly illustrated concertina
book takes you on a journey through the deep dark waters, all the
way down to the seabed, before floating back up to the surface. A
follow-up to The Street Beneath My Feet, The Skies Above My Eyes
and The World Around Me, this visually stunning book ventures to
the very bottom of the sea on a journey of discovery. Through the
waves and into the deep, you'll spot all kinds of weird and
wonderful marine creatures, explore the seabed and discover the
impact humans have had on the underwater world. As you dive below
the surface, past sea otters playing in fields of giant kelp, you
will see sea lions and shoals of mackerel playing in the shallows,
before passing orcas hunting in pods in the deeper water. As well
as animals, discover the technology which is used under the sea,
from scuba breathing apparatus to oil pipelines and deep sea
submarines. As you reach the very bottom of the sea, the 'twilight
zone' where very little light can filter through, you will meet the
mysterious creatures of the deep such as Lanternfish and the
luminous swell shark. This book is part of the Look Closer series,
a set of concertina books which help teach us about the mysteries
which can be found in the world around us.
The series was written to be aligned with CAPS. A possible work
schedule has been included. Each topic start with an overview of

The World's Most Pointless Animals is a witty, quirky, colourfully
illustrated book featuring fascinating facts about some very silly
animals ... who we find are perhaps not so pointless after all.
From familiar animals like giraffes (who don't have any vocal
cords) through to those that surely should not even exist, such as
the pink fairy armadillo (absurdly huge front claws, super tough
protective shell in baby pink, particularly susceptible to stress),
our planet is full of some pretty weird and wonderful animals. For
example: Koalas spend up to 18 hours a day asleep! Pandas are born
bright pink, deaf and blind. Dumbo octopuses flap their big
fin-like ears to move around. A Narwhal's tusk grows through its
upper lip - ouch! With hilarious text throughout and bright,
contemporary illustrations, this guide to absurdly awesome animals
contains funny labelled diagrams and some excellent made-up Latin
names (n.b. the jellyfish's scientific name is not actually
wibblious wobblious ouchii). Carrying an important message of
celebrating diversity and differences, The World's Most Pointless
Animals inspires a drive to conserve our amazing planet and the
creatures we're lucky enough to share it with. Quirky Creatures is
a series dedicated to seeking out the weird and wonderful denizens
of the natural world and explaining why they are so strange, from
the ridiculous to the truly terrifying. Also available in this
series is The World's Most Ridiculous Animals and The World's Most
Atrocious Animals.
With a straightforward text and illustrations showing beasts and
bugs doing it, younger children are shown a natural part of life.
"Elephants and mice, fish and raccoons, grown-ups and children, all
in their own style do it. The candor is refreshing and the
illustrations charming and childlike."--"The Children's Book Bat."
Full-color illustrations. Baby/Preschool.

We Are All Animals offers children an awe-inspiring new way to understand the animal kingdom.
This unique book reveals astonishing similarities in the anatomy – and many more characteristics - of humans and other animals, celebrating our entire furry, scaly, slimy, slippery, extended family.
Did you know that most animal bodies, including ours, are shaped like tubes? Or that humans share 75% of their genes with chickens? That rats are ticklish, and dolphins give each other names? Children will be delighted to discover how similar they are to bats, bees, dogs, frogs, jellyfish, giraffes, and many more. By encouraging readers to make connections between distant corners of the animal kingdom, this book celebrates the extraordinary ways in which all of Earth’s creatures are connected.
Created in partnership with the Humanimal Trust, a charity advocating collaboration between physicians and veterinarians, this book is underpinned by cutting-edge medical science. The charity’s founder - Professor Noel Fitzpatrick - is an internationally renowned veterinarian, who also stars in his own TV series, The Supervet (a nickname he has earned through the groundbreaking veterinary procedures he performs). He has written a foreword to the book, and his extensive medical expertise runs throughout every page.
