Diamonds, Hearts and Sea Stars: A picture book about shapes found in the ocean and to raise environmental awareness in children (Middle childhood, Concepts: Shapes)
While forms are precise in a geometry book,
In Nature, we must take a second good look.
So step outside and open your eyes
-The shapes you see could be quite a surprise.
So let's look together, just you and me.
I wonder which shapes we'll be able to see.
Come on a magical journey and discover the shapes and creatures of the ocean in rhymes and riddles. You will learn about sea creatures in a fun and entertaining way, and also become aware of the man-made threats they face and how we can help to protect them. Beautifully illustrated, informative and thought provoking, this wonderful book is also great in a classroom for raising environmental awareness among children.
