1001 Things to Spot in the Sea

Beautiful illustrations, fun puzzles, well made, great for nature-loving kids. I had the paperback version of this when I was little and I loved it so much I wore it down to scrap paper. Got this copy for the memories, and I'm really happy with the quality of the hardcover edition.

This book is a multi-subject book. It includes Reading, Math, Science and Ecology. A Great teaching book!

This is one of my 3 year old Grandnephews favorite books ... we take him to a place where he feeds the fish and looks for little crabs, so when we saw this book, it was perfect ! Every time he comes to our home, he goes for the 1001 Things to Spot books, they make more then just this one, which he also has, but in this one he finds the crabs, not just one kind, but many different kinds of crabs ! He loves to court how many he can find and he never gets tired of the fun he has when we read it together.The book is very colorful and detailed. It is made very well with quality paper and beautiful color !I would recommend this book, it's amazing !Thank you,Chris

During school my grand-daughter, age 7, kept checking this book out of the library over and over again so that by the end of the school year she didn't want to give it up, so I checked Amazon to see how much it was and I bought it for her for her 8th birthday. She absolutely loved it. She loves searching for all the animals.

Wonderful book. My 3 year old loves to find and count all the sea creatures. This is my far one of his favorite books.

This is more than a counting book... This book transports kids to another world and unlocks their imagination. The images are GREAT and very true to real life animals in the sea. I feel it would motivate kids to want to learn more about science particularly biology and aquariums. There were some images that rather underwhelmed me because they were not focused on science, history, or culture and were just images of people on vacation. Here are the following scenes included:- Open Sea with sharks, sun fish, diving birds, jellyfish, whale, squid, etc. A few Manta-ray are included but only in shadow.- Water sports with people using inner-tubes, boogie boards, sailing ships, speed boats, etc. This was one of my least favorite pages in the book.- Icy North with walrus, seals, orca, polar bears, etc.- Coral Reef with a variety of corals, fish, giant clams, etc.- By the Seashore with peaople playing in the sand and tide pools. Includes crabs, mussels, oyster-catchers, etc. This page had too many people to my liking.. I wish it focused on the ecosystem instead.- Underwater forest is a kelp forest with sea otters, starfish, urchins, crabs, fish, etc.- On a Cruise shows the top deck of a ship with people doing various things like sunbathing to dancing etc. Dolphins are jumping next to the boat. I didn't like the page very much.- Deep Down shows the deep sea with a dumbo octopus, angler fish, crabs, eels, fish, tube worms, etc.- Sea Village was the only people focused image that I enjoyed. It had a village on stilts in the water with boats, market, kids playing etc. I particularly liked the bird trying to steal a fish out of grandma's hands and they are locking in a tug-of-war.- Lost City is an underwater archeology scene with Egyptian and possibly Greek statuary, jars, coins etc. The octopi were a nice touch.- Chilly South is a scene from an island near Antarctica with penguins, seals, dolphin, albatross, etc.- Grassy Seabed is a scene from a mangrove with manatees, turtles, fish, spoonbills, catfish, etc.- Shipwreck is a scene of a shipwrecked boat that has become home to corals, fish, eels, stingray etc.- At the Aquarium is a list of other things you can find and count in the book so not a more basic image than the rest of the book.Usage: Count the animals and objects shown on the right edge of the picture. Find the camera in each picture. After completing the entire book, find the 16 other creatures listed on pages 30-31.Overall, I believe kids are going to enjoy looking at the images even more than counting the objects in them.

My 30 month old daughter love it so much. Busy? Hand this to your interested toddler and they will be in it for a long time. Of course, teach them how to use it first.

The book was described as 'very good' and it was like new! I am very pleased.

My 3 year old is obsessed with sea creatures and this is a great book for him and us, as his parents, to learn about more unique animals than just the typical creatures you think of in the sea. Lots of variety, some creatures are harder to find but not impossible. Most animals are grouped together. The one thing we don't like is that there will be an unknown creature on the page and we have no way of finding out what it's called; the name isn't listed anywhere in the book. The book was in pristine condition though it showed up 4-5 weeks past the expected date, so it was a nice forgotten surprise.

Commandé d'occasion, reçu en super état, proche du neuf. Mon petit garçon de deux ans aime beaucoup regarder les images et retrouver les poissons dans les illustrations, qui sont assez réalistes et vraiment belles. Il apprend beaucoup de noms d'animaux au passage ! Il ne compte pas encore beaucoup donc on a un peu simplifié le jeu (on en cherche un seul), mais je pense que ce livre servira très longtemps car les jeux sont très bien pour des enfants jusqu'à 7-8 ans je pense.

Another great book that will keep you entertained for hours trying to spot all the creatures in the pages. Some I have never heard of so it is also educational. The book is well made and the lay out is fab with such good pictures.

Très bien!

Great book to spend time with your kids. My grandson loves spotting the fish
