Description
The newest book in the Little Explorers series takes young readers from the seashore to the ocean floor, finding fascinating plants and animals and solving ocean mysteries along the way.
Let's meet some of the amazing sea life that calls the ocean home.
What creatures live where there is no sunlight? How do tides work? Is coral a plant or an animal? Search for the answers to these questions and more in the newest book in the Little Explorers series! With engaging text and realistic illustrations, young readers will adventure through the fascinating underwater world of our planet's oceans.
Learn why some sea creatures glow, and how sharks can be as small as a pencil or as long as a bowling lane. From the helpful kelp forests of the shallow sunlight zone to the cold depths of the abyssal zone, interesting plants and animals abound—and many mysteries too.
Let's dive in!

Featured Reviews

Ocean Secrets is a non-fiction books that whispers the majestic secrets of the ocean to the reader.
Each page is filled with many interesting facts that open up more questions about the Earth, life and oceans.
It will look even better in print. I can see children holding the book in their hands, mesmerised by the world it transports them to.

This book provides a lot good information about the ocean and it's different depths and creatures. The art is pretty and informative. The pages are full of pictures and information without feeling cluttered.

I received access to Ocean Secrets by Sarah Grindler as an advance copy and am not being paid for this review.
Ocean Secrets by Sarah Grindler is a beautifully illustrated book that engages readers of all ages to learn about the Ocean Secrets. The facts are presented in an easy to read way that makes it perfect for a read aloud with a classroom or with kids at night. This book wasn’t overwhelming with facts like other nonfiction books for young readers can be. Fans of Gail Gibbons books will love how similar Grindler’s writing and illustrations are. This book will help engage young scientists for many years to come.

This children's picture book is beautifully illustrated. It is very detailed with ocean vocabulary words and ocean facts!
