We have A LOT of sea creatures books so I didn’t think this one would provide much… but the information and fun facts are SO interesting and new

‘My First Book of Sea Creatures’ illustrated by Zoë Ingram is the perfect introduction to non-fiction texts. ? Digestible key key facts ? Clean, easy to read layout ? Bright, engaging illustrations. The teacher in me would LOVE IT if all junior non-fiction looked like this.

The illustrations by Zoe Ingram are the drawcard of this book. Each creature is colourful, clearly illustrated, and the layout of the pages make it easy to read and digest. Not overly wordy, it is a simple, fact-filled read and a lovely addition to an avid sea-lovers library. An opportunity to connect with discussions on sea life, the Great Barrier Reef and ocean life in general.
