Description
Seen from space, Earth is a swirl of blue and white. The blue is Earth's oceans, which cover 70% of its surface... yet the ocean is the most unexplored region of our planet. Now more than ever, we need to learn more about the ocean's secrets and protect it as much as we can.
From Shore to Ocean Floor is the story of how humans came from building the first boats to discovering the secrets of the deep. Marvel at incredible scientific discoveries, be dazzled by some of the most exciting new species, and admire the incredible men and women who took the very first steps below the surface.
This fascinating, spectacularly illustrated book comes from the author and illustrator of the award-winning Balloon to the Moon.

About the Author
Gill Arbuthnott (Author)
Gill Arbuthnott lives in Edinburgh and has been a published author since 2003. She writes fiction and non-fiction and reckons that being a children's author is probably the best job in the world. Her recent books Dark Spell, Beneath and What Makes You You? have been shortlisted for major UK book awards. A former science teacher, she loves mixing scientific fact with wonderful anecdotes of people and places.
Chris Nielsen (Illustrator)
Christopher Nielsen is an award-winning Sydney-based illustrator. His work flows from a love of vintage design. Tin toys, Mexican wrestlers, matchboxes, medical charts and Indian goddesses all jostle for attention amongst the flotsam and jetsam in his flip-top head.
His images have been adopted by wineries, zoos, department stores, radio stations and fishmongers around the globe. When he's not making images or raising children he can be found on stage with his band, The Ramalamas.
