Meet Mim
This book is for everyone from inquisitive little people who love nature to adults who can still be fascinated. Every reader will love learning about this amazing sea creature, a master of disguise. To survive, this creature must impersonate and outwit many other creatures in its habitat. The fun is in the guessing: what creature is this?
The world of the sandy seabed is brought to life in Meet Mim, the story of one of the natural world’s masters of disguise — the mimic octopus.
Sandra Severgnini sets up a delightful guessing game for the reader while showcasing the abilities of this little-known creature. The mimic octopus can change colour, shape, and skin texture in all kinds of amazing ways. It deters predators by shapeshifting into creatures that are known to be poisonous, such as the spiked lionfish and the banded sea snake. It can even imitate jellyfish and sea stars.
This book is for everyone from inquisitive little people who love nature to adults who can still be fascinated. Budding marine biologists will delight in the wealth of accurate detail presented in the illustrations. Adult and child readers alike will be left with a new appreciation for the life in our precious yet threatened marine environments.
