Based on the life of Sylvia Earle - the first person to walk the deep ocean floor untethered - this epic story of aquatic discovery will inspire young explorers all over the world
Sylvia loves everything about the ocean. The salt on her lips, the feeling of her toes sinking into the sand. Watching the dolphins dive through the surf, Sylvia longed for nothing more than to follow them into their underwater world and discover their secrets. But dreams don't come true... or do they?
Based on the groundbreaking story of a real-life ocean explorer, this stunningly illustrated book delves into the depths of Sylvia Earle's life, career and achievements, inspiring a new generation of aquanauts to take the plunge.
