Description

Take a deep dive into the world of wild, weird, and wonderful sea creatures!  Get up close to some of extraordinary creatures that live in the abyss, the little-explored world thousands of feet beneath the ocean surface. A gulper eel with an inflatable mouth, a barreleye fish with a transparent head, a goblin shark with an extendable jaw, a vampire squid that can turn itself inside out, and a sea worm that drops "bombs", are just a few of the incredible creatures you’ll encounter. Filled with facts and bright, bold, scientifically accurate illustrations, The Magnificent Book of Creatures of the Abyss takes young readers on a deep dive of adventure and exploration!       EXPLORE THE ABYSS: The abyss, or deepest parts of the oceans, is home to some of the weirdest, wildest, and most unique creatures on the planet. 36 INCREDIBLE CREATURES: Kids can learn about dozens of deep-sea dwellers, from the gulper eel with an inflatable mouth to the barreleye fish with a transparent head. BEAUTIFULLY ILLUSTRATED: Gorgeous, detailed, and scientifically accurate images bring some of the most incredible deep-sea creatures to life. FASCINATING FACTS: Includes hundreds of fascinating facts in an easy-to-read format that will enthral animal lovers of all ages.
