Dive into the wondrous world of water and discover the stories of more than 100 incredible aquatic lifeforms From the deepest, widest ocean to the tiniest puddle, this beautiful compendium takes young readers on an enthralling journey through the aquatic world, meeting amazing animals, ingenious plants, and much more along the way. Stunning photography and gorgeous illustrations complement storybook descriptions about each lifeform, and children can uncover hundreds of fascinating facts as they read. Did you know that elephant seals that can hold their breath underwater for more than an hour, or that the Victoria Amazonica water lily can support the weight of an adult, or that the brown basilisk reptile can run across water? Discover the science of how plants have learnt to live, feed, and breathe in water, and take a look at the unique challenges of distinct ecosystems on feature spreads about rivers, lakes, wetlands, and more. From sharks and sailfish, to bulrushes and beetles, there's something for everyone in this celebration of all things aquatic. Sam Hume is a wildlife film-maker, whose work has featured on the BBC (Springwatch, Big Blue Live), Apple TV+ (Tiny World) and ITV (A Year On Planet Earth (in production). He studied Zoology at St Andrews University, where he was the senior aquarist of the local aquarium - training harbour seals and managing captive breeding of thornback rays. Today, Sam lives in Somerset with his wife and a large menagerie of strange animals (including two daughters). This is his first book for children.
