Dive into the world’s oceans for an exhilarating journey to meet the most amazing sea creatures. Get up close to everything from the giant whale shark to the teeny tiny krill.

Take a trip to some of the most fascinating ocean habitats, from sun-filled kelp forests, through icy polar waters, to dark ocean depths. Be dazzled by brightly coloured coral reef fish and spot the fierce-looking moray eel. Wonder at the glowing creatures that live in total darkness at the bottom of the ocean.

Peer into tide pools to see a whole world in miniature. And meet the sharks—if you dare!

Enjoy penguins splashing and diving, dinner time in food-rich coastal waters, and the strange creatures that live around mysterious smoking chimneys.

Filled with bold, scientifically accurate illustrations, fascinating information, and an interactive “Spot It” game, My First Oceans Atlas will thrill animal-lovers and aspiring marine biologists alike.
