Like the previous books in the series, it is full of fascinating facts, questions and answers. There is also a more generic challenge in which readers are given the task of finding the sneaky sardine who has found his way into fifteen of the spreads. Subheadings are scattered across the page and are accompanied by facts and informative chunks of text. Well, The Big Book of the Blue has the answers to all of these questions and more.

If you are not familiar with Zommer’s work and ‘The Big Book’ series you are seriously missing out. Will definately be buying other books by this author. !

The size is amazing, I was so pleased when I got it! How many tins can one tuna fill? Each double page spread focuses on a specific topic or creature and is laid out in an inviting way for the reader. Recommended for 6+.

Zommer’s clever use of puns adds humour to the book which readers will delight in. It is a brilliant book for any budding oceanographer and will be devoured by children who want to find out about everything that lives in the ‘big blue’. The book is a fabulous way for children to learn about the wonders of the ocean and the creatures within it.

It is beautifully illustrated and my 8 year old son and 5 year old daughter love it. Why does a crab run sideways? My favourite double page is the the deep dive page where the reader is treated to a dive into the ocean and an examination of what is going on at different depths - fascinating stuff. I accidentally put two (2) of the same book in my cart not paying attention, I should have put 10 because EVERYONE LOVES this book, it’s amazing book, I got one of each!

And when all the information gets too much, there are fabulous ‘can you find’ activities. My 7 year old little boy adores it!
