Simply Perfect

This is one awesome book, for kids and for adults. Not much seems to be offered regarding bioluminescence in mainstream science books and it's very nice to see this beautiful book being offered for kids. It's wonderfully and clearly written, the pictures and photography are literally "out of this world". I bought it for my kids, but to be honest, I really bought it for myself. This is simply one of the best books I've seen for kids in years.

Enjoyment for both kids and adults

This book is a beautiful amalgam of science and poetry. Not only is it a wonderful introduction for children to the mysteries of the sea, it's a very special aesthetic experience for grownups as well!

Engaging and informative

This books tells us about sea organisms that glow --all the dinoflaggelates, bright worms, flashlight fish, etc. -- that turn the ocean into fairyland. Mary Batten clearly describes how and why this happens. Intended for children, Mary Batten's book invites ANYONE'S imagination to swim among the weird bioluminescent creatures in the deep underwater sea. Beautifully illustrated. Really neat. (This joint review by readers 53 and 13).
