The Sea Hides a Seahorse

This is such a wonderful little story! The bright colours in the illustrations really make the story shine and pop! I would recommend it to anyone who has children interested in reading a cute picture book!

What a cute book! I loved the bright, colorful illustrations and the subtle seek-and-find with the seahorses throughout. There are some neat facts at the end as well. I think this will really appeal to children, especially those who are interested in sea creatures and the ocean.

What a beautiful book! The illustrations are gorgeous, and the book provides so much information about seahorses, their habitats and behaviors.

I like that the story is easy to read without being overwhelming, and then the glossary at the end explains some terms in more detail.

I would be excited to use this one in my classroom!

Thank you to NetGalley for providing me with a copy of this book for review.

The Sea Hides a Seahorse shares facts about seahorses through brief prose and beautiful art. I actually learned more about seahorses than I was expecting to through the main story and there are additional facts and resources at the end of the book. The page count lends itself to a young reader's attention span, but be aware that it mentions mating very briefly and vaguely (to also show how baby seahorses are born) and you might want to be prepared for that convo if you have a kiddo who likes to ask questions.

Thanks to Collective Book Studio and NetGalley for an eARC of this book for an honest review.

This is such a fun book! My nephews will love this! It is a cute hide and seek type book that teaches kids real facts about sea horses! I myself used to be obsessed with sea horses.

What a fun aquatic adventure this read was! My child with autism LOVES aquariums and looking at all things under the sea. Diving into this with him this evening was so fun. We loved looking at the BEAUTIFUL illustrations, and seeing how the sea can help camouflage sea horses in the various environments. The colors were rich, bold and eye captivating, and paired perfectly with the storyline. I love when children's authors are able to create captivating and educational stories that help young readers find passion and adventure on newer topics.

Thank you Sara T. Behrman for creating such a fun adventure for my little reader. And NetGalley for hosting this story for us to explore!

I enjoyed this book and the illustrations. I especially liked the seahorse facts at the end of the story.

Beautifully illustrated children's book about seahorses which are so fascinating to me. This is a poetry type prose rather than information/fact based book too to know. But at end it has a bunch of facts about seahorses which I really enjoyed as well! Even though I'm not the target audience I enjoyed looking at the gorgeous drawings which were really well done!

This book was such a delight! The illustrations added so much to the experience, and we had a blast spotting all the hidden details tucked within the pages.

This is a magical book.

Who doesn’t love a seahorse? Still now a favourite of mine into my old age. So a pure delight to share with my own grandchildren.

This is a complete book that introduces the different aspects and activities of the seahorse. They are illustrated in their habitat where camouflage skills are introduced when confronted by their predators.

The text is simple and repetitive which kids will enjoy and love its growing familiarity. The fact that the seahorses are ‘hidden’ makes the children more aware and they pay great attention trying to spot these enchanting creatures in the pages. They can also name the predators out hunting which are introduced in quite poetic language.

At the end of the book there is addition descriptions of the various aspects in the life cycle of the seahorse and details how to learn more and protection these endangered fish.

A real joy and a continued pleasure to read with my loved ones.

This book is beautiful and I loved the repetition of "the sea hides a seahorse". The repetition and artistry will draw children in. The hide and seek with the seahorses, especially with all their different shapes and colors will keep them entertained. There is great information at the back with facts about seahorses.

This is such a pretty book! I loved the huge variety of colors in the pictures and the many types of seahorses! This book is incredibly informative- perhaps too much so if you are worried about your child asking you what mating is :)
