What They're Saying

Critics Review

“Blake Chapman has loaded this book with some catchy headings and then in depth, yet child- friendly facts, to educate those who want to know more about the animals we don’t always think about.” – Vanessa Ryan-Rendall * Educate.Empower *
“Chapman has struck the all-important balance between being fun and engaging, while also being scientific and educational.” – Madeleine Crofts * CBCA Reading Time Online *
“When I first opened this book, it looked like a proper scientific resource with plenty of photographs and a handy glossary at the back – and it is. But it reads like a Talent Show! It’s as though the best ocean acts are waiting in the wings, ready to star in this amazing book’s performance. I was half-way through before I came up for air!” – Celia Berrell * Science Rhymes *
