Description
Sail away on an ocean odyssey with best-selling illustrator Millie Marotta. She takes you on a voyage of discovery from the Arctic waters to the balmy Australian coast. Swim with dolphins, narwhals, manatees, and manta rays. Look up to the cries of albatrosses, pelicans, and little auks. Grab your pencils and bring to life jellyfish, puffins, and polar bears.
The watery world is particularly close to Millie's heart, and she brings her passion to these intricate drawings of shells, pebbles, corals, and barnacles. She includes cliffs, reefs, waves, and islands to help set the scene. This is a must for all colouring fans, and particularly the thousands of Millie fans who love her patterned illustration style that allows for the most creative of colouring.
Colouring Millie's beautiful illustrations is the perfect mindful activity for these troubling times, and new and old Millie fans will find so much to enjoy (and learn) about the animal kingdom of the seas. Millie shares her love for the world above and below our seas and hopes this book will spur us to protect a true wonder of our world.
Millie Marotta's Secrets of the Sea invites you to explore and colour the wonders of the ocean.
