OK I know these are supposed to be kid books but they are awesome! Great pictures and just enough text to make you want to learn more. Great choices for a beginning history reader or to start an older reader out in a new area. Every time I pick one of these up and read it I learn new things. Highly Recommended

Seashore, by Steve Parker is a great nonfiction book to teach your kids about the seashore. This book has things about the living things on shore, or under the sea. It is fun to read and helps you learn about it at the same time. I read it and it taught me stuff I didn't even know about. I rated this book 4 out of 5 stars because it was a good book and I liked it. I would recommend this book for all ages.
Compact but stuffed with great illustrations, science information, and hands-on things to try. My son's outgrown it, so it's going to his school's library.
My libraries copy has a different cover but I think it's the same book. There are not as many animals in this book as the other ocean books I've used in lessons (only starfish,crabs, lobster, seal are large). This book has large or detailed photographs of seaweed, anemones and shells etc. Each page is a different type of thing found on the shore, which makes it not the best book for my coral drawing lesson, but would work still if I didn't have more specific books on coral.
