A first look at ocean animal families

From tiny seahorses to whale calves, this picture book introduces young readers to baby animals across a range of marine habitats, including coral reefs and polar seas. Its subject matter spans sharks, seals, jellyfish, corals, and more, with attention to how ocean young are born, cared for, fed, and play. The book also draws a connection between the ways some sea animals care for their young and familiar aspects of family life. Sylvia Earle’s ocean expertise and Brian Skerry’s photography bring together marine science and visual discovery for an introduction to the ocean as a nursery.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 interested in ocean animals and their young.
