Review: Lovely Primer for adults and children about to go reef snorkelling - This is a lovely graphic, as well as informative, little primer on the wonders that wait you if you happen to be going on a family vacation that involves reef snorkelling or just want to explore the underwater in your child's mind's eye. We were lucky enough to go "Snorkelling on the 'Barrie" (the Great Barrier Reef), off Cairns - Michaelmas Cay and Hastings Reef as well as off a platform near Green Island. My almost 10 year old was just about fit to be tied by the time we got our gear on and he just wanted to go meet these beautiful creatures he had been reading about. Real life potato cod "Gertrude" and a lovely "Maori Wrasse" named 'Wally' and other reef life are stunning but also very evident is the damage that so called eco-tourism is actually doing to the Barrie and reefs just like it - lots of dead coral. The book addresses these issues simply too but the Australians seem to have a better understanding of the yin-yang of eco-tourism and sustaining livelihoods of people who care about the environment in a way that is more practical and accepting of all view points having a place at the table.
Review: i did not get what this book was about before buying, but now that i do i love it even more - I had a totally different conception of what this book was going to be (don't even ask, im kinda embarrassed now just thinking about it). other reviews are right, this is one of the most beautifully illustrated books ive ever seen! The level of detail is incredible. The names of the "chapters" are cute, and is the whole darn thing. I bought it for a 4th grader who love nature but has some mental challenges and can't read for himself very well, if at all. Hopefully his parents will take the time to read all the factoids included in each "level" of the square. I think he will love knowing about all the different marine life and find it fascinating. The book will definitely intrigue readers of all ages.
