“...This handsome volume from the Sills' About Habitats series introduces the world's largest habitat...The paintings are notable for the subtle use of color to recreate effects of water and light within the scenes...[A] fine addition to science collections...” ―Booklist

“...I really thought this was an interesting read. The text (the meat) of the story was in easy to read, kid friendly terms, with short sentences and awesome illustrations (more on that later). But then--when you flip to the afterword, there are all sorts of facts about each page, giving even more detail and information...All in all, a great book. I can't wait to share it in my classroom.” ―Maestra Amanda's Bookshelf blog

“A lovely primer on Earth's largest habitat, this book illustrates all the ocean basics with spare text and vivid watercolors. A detailed afterword allows readers to dig deeper.” ―Scholastic Parent and Child Magazine
