This is a beautiful book. My granddaughter is 20 months old and this is one of our special "read together" books. She squeals over the pictures and we have to read it over and over.
 My baby loves these books! January 11, 2006

We have three of these books. The other two we have are "In the Rain Forest", and "In the Forest". The rain forest and forest ones are her favorite and she isn't even one year old yet. The only reason I gave this one 4 stars is because it doesn't seem to grasp her attention as much as her two other books. I think becuase the pictures in the other two are more lively and there is more variety in color and texture. I give a lot of credit to these books because they are the only things that can keep her still for a long period of time. They have been life savers on airplane rides. I believe they have also encouraged her early love of books.
So good I bought it twice August 29, 2005
I originally bought this for my daughter when she was about a year old. She loved it!!! In fact she read it and reread it so much that I had to throw it out about a year ago because it was so worn. I just recently bought it again (she is now 3 1/2) and she still loves it.
This is a great book for toddlers. It has bright vivid pictures and a nice story.

Our sons enjoy many of Maurice Pledger's books -- and this one with AJ Wood is our favorite for its well written text to accompany the drawings. some of the other books have much weaker text, and some have animals that do not look all that different (the mammals are often very similar). This is a nice story where the little dolphin looks for his family, all the while watched over by his mother.
outstanding book September 26, 2003
My daughter received this book when she was 19 months old and it immediately became a favorite--an incredible compliment considering all she does is read books. The illustrations are vibrant and incredibly stimulating--something to find on every inch of each page. 5 months after receiving the book my daughter still adores it. She now knows the name of every creature in the book, down to the nautilus, neons, and sea slug. This book has definitely spawned a love of the ocean in her. And the format of the book, with its different textures that morph from one subject to another with the lifting of a flap is brilliant. We'll be buying every book by Maurice Pledger!
