world's oceans with LucyLetherland's animal characters. Each

characterful style. Interesting facts and figures pepper the

kilometres a day? Or that some sea snails can grow up to half a

dark? A natural history lesson in an adventure book, each spread
features 10 captions and and facts about every destination. The 5th

the pictured scenes and scene-stealers. Children and adults alike
