This series describes how certain creatures interact and help each other to survive, using large beautiful pictures and text catering to the younger audience. It also offers younger students the opportunity to learn about the characteristics of nonfiction books. The pictures provide “larger than life” visuals of the creatures discussed, and the language is simple, yet very informative. This series will introduce students to life underwater, as they have never seen it before. It is also one way to introduce teamwork to a kindergarten or first grade class. Recommended.
