Book Reviews of Somewhere in the Ocean
Book Review: The Sea version to " Over in the Meadow "book
Summary: 5 Stars
This book's idea came from a book I loved as a child called " Over in the Meadow, Where the Green Grass Grows". This book has taken counting in the meadow to the beautiful world and animals that live under the sea!
The illustrator Kenneth J. Spendgler did an awesome job!! I absolutely love page 5 with the sea otters. To me, they are so cute I just want to swim out and hug them! Another super cool thing about this book is that on each page the number of the page is hidden somewhere in his artwork, some where easy for me to find, others challenging. To me, this book will grow with my daughter and she'll see that there is more to this book than just a counting!
As far as the young reader who reviewed this book it ad big words in it, the only place I could think of that has big words is on the last 5 pages of the book. This is where the authors included "Fun Facts" on the sea animals that are featured in the story and the fact that the author talks about how all animals either have an invertebrate or invertebrates. Or maybe it was the words " Sea Urchin" and "Sea Anemone" which to me either dances off my tongue or twists it about like a tongue twister!
An awesome book that includes the story to song, fun facts on the sea animals pictured and one heck of a terrific artist! For any lover of the sea, you just can't go wrong purchasing this book!
