Seventy percent of our planet is covered in water, and this ultimate children’s visual encyclopedia takes readers on a deep dive through every corner of it, bringing the world’s oceans to life in mind-blowing detail. Aimed at ages 9-12, Ocean: A Children’s Encyclopedia uses annotated artworks and step-by-step sequences to explain key processes, while “look closer” panels, “wow” facts, and data boxes add extra layers of detail to every topic. Catalogue pages offer succinct profiles of animals and geographical features, and sweeping double-page images capture the ocean at its most astonishing. An innovative design pairs with high-quality images and graphics to demonstrate key concepts clearly, making even complex subjects easy for young readers to grasp. Built on the latest research, the book is packed with informative text and incredible facts covering everything from tiny plankton and giant whales to coral reefs and depth zones, as well as ocean exploration and the impact of climate change – making it an excellent reference resource for school projects or learning at home. Ocean: A Children’s Encyclopedia belongs to DK’s series of award-winning, best-selling children’s encyclopedias, now completely revised, and is far more than a simple catalogue of facts and photographs: it’s a visual celebration of the history of all life on Earth.
