This trip around the world's oceans provides hours of fun and learning in a series of highlydetailed double-page spreads that look at every aspect of critical coastal habitats, including the ebb and flow of tides; life in a coastal settlement; artistic depictions of seashores; native animals and plants; the whaling industry; tourism; and climatechange. The book also provides a Twenty-first-century corrective to Western-centric narratives about exploration and colonialism. Interspersed throughout are meticulously detailed maps of the world's largest oceans with historic events, figures and scientific facts highlighted. As fun as it is informative, this vibrant book takes readers on a trip around the globe that fosters a feeling of connection between their lives and the world's coastlines''-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Coasts $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Seashore $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Coastal ecology $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Oversize books $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 650 1 $a Coasts. 650 1 $a Seashore. 650 1 $a Coastal ecology. 650 1 $a Oversize books. 700 1 $a Haake, Martin, $e illustrator. 941 $a 1 952 $l ZKPC437 $d 20240622013754.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DCD5FDD6305C11EFB38D90F13EECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
