The global ocean / written by Rochelle Strauss ; illustrated by Natasha Donovan.
aTHE GLOBAL OCEAN presents curious readers with a comprehensive picture of a body of water that is much more than a vast habitat: the well-researched and accessibly written text details the global ocean's influence on the whole of the planet, as well as the often detrimental influence of Earth's human inhabitants have on the global ocean. Yet by including inspiring and up-to-date initiatives - from everyday actions to larger institutional projects - on each spread, as well as in dedicated sections at the end of the book, the book's environmental message of urgency is as hopeful as it is accurate. Filled with fascinating information, stunning visuals, and calls to action, kids will be inspired to create their own ripples of change to help heal the global ocean, and ultimately our planet.
