Undersea Animals: A dramatic dimensional visit to strange underwater realms

Jane H. Buxton

Illustrated by Jerry Pinkney

Non-Fiction Pop-up Board Book

Ages 4 to 7

National Geographic, 2008, 978-1-4263-03334-0

  The world’s oceans and seas are full of peculiar animals of all kinds. These creatures live in a dazzling array of different kinds of habitats. There are kelp beds, the ocean floor, coral reefs, the open ocean, and the dark ocean depths where there is no light at all.

  In this fabulous pop-up book we get to explore some of these fascinating places and the animals that live there. We learn that hermit crabs sometimes trundle around with anemones on their shell backs and that fish swim in schools to protect themselves? We also find out that moray eels like to come out of their dens at night to hunt.

  Throughout the book Jerry Pinkney’s beautiful illustrations provide a perfect backdrop for the text. In addition, every double page spread has a large pop-up at its center and many of the pages also have tabs to pull, flaps to lift, and dials to turn. There are so many wonderful things to learn and to look at in this special title.
