About On An Ocean Journey

With rhythmic text and stunning artwork, this picture book celebrates the dynamic animals and habitats of the ocean, from shallow waters to ocean depths.

Beloved Alaskan artist Ray Troll’s gorgeous scientifically accurate illustrations capture the imagination of young readers—for ages 5-9.

Dive into the dynamic habitat of the Earth’s one ocean and discover the many ways sea creatures move through their watery world, from kelp forest fish to swift hunters and long-distance travelers riding ocean currents across the globe.

The book includes kid-friendly information on conservation of marine resources, fostering life-long stewardship among young readers, and also provides a short field guide for the wildlife featured in illustrations.

Surging, whirling . . . drifting, swirling.
The ocean wraps our world in wonder,
from rocky coast to deep down under.
