its secrets with this trusty and beautifully-illustrated guide by
Lonely Planet Kids. Meet the amazing animals, birds and plants that
live in our oceans, the habitats in which they live, then learn
about the harmful effects climate change, oil spills and plastic
waste can have on them - plus, what you can do to help future
generations! From the odd-shaped head of the great hammerhead shark
to the hairy strips of baleen in a baleen whale's mouth, meet some
of the ocean's oddest creatures and discover how they have evolved
to live and thrive under the sea. Journey from the colourful coral
reefs of the Indian Ocean to the wild waves of freezing Antarctica,
covering everywhere from sandy beaches, deserted open seas and
mile-deep trenches in-between. Learn all about the history of how
the oceans came to be, as well as the sunken cities that were
claimed by them, then understand just how powerful the force of
water can be as you explore tides, waves, tsunamis and currents.

palm-fringed islands, end with a lesson on how humans have been

do to help protect them for the future. About Lonely Planet Kids:
