In addition to wonderful descriptions, like explaining how underneath the ice looks like mountain peaks, Skerry writes descriptions that reader can readily identify in the pictures. The pronunciation for words follow the spelling, and his writing style is more like he is talking to a son or daughter than the typical academic format for nonfiction writing.
Curriculum Connections: This would be a great resource for a research project on ocean life and the way the animals interact with their changing environment. ( )
