Reviews
For those curious about these fascinating creatures, it is a great extra resource. You could use it when discussing marine environments and biomes as well as an extra station activity., The informative illustrations in the science reference section are particularly good, with enough detail and explanation to articulate complex and sophisticated biological concepts to little people (and big people)., This book had me captivated and brought home to me the wonder of symbiosis. It is a must for all libraries so as the children can understand how these incredible relationships have evolved., This book adds to the growing number of children's books on microbes, which I think is fantastic given the important role they play in our life and the environment. I would highly recommend it to teachers and parents of children who are interested in biology and the marine environment., All children who I have read this book to have enjoyed it for a myriad of reasons - some enjoy the facts section at the back, others enjoy the story, some enjoy the sketches of the different sea creatures and of course many enjoy the whole book!, The book is a beautiful, engaging, and effective work of science communication for a young audience.

    The book I bought was reasonably priced and when it arrived it was in the 'Like New' condition specified in the listing. However, when I saw that the seller had not shipped the book after more than 15 days had passed since my order I felt I must write to say that I had actually placed an order with the seller and inquire when it planned to send the book. The brusque reply was that a tracking number was available, but no number HAD been created until I pointed out that I had placed the order.
