Critique: This large format hardcover edition of ""Encyclopedia of Undersea Life for Young Readers"" from Albatros Media is a truly extraordinary and unreservedly recommended addition to family, elementary school, middle school, and community library Marine Wildlife collections for children ages 6-9."" —Midwest Book Review - Children's Bookwatch ""A picture book encyclopedia with gorgeous artwork that will satisfy both casual browsers and those looking for slightly more in-depth coverage. The illustrations are gorgeous, arresting, and brightly colored; visual learners and budding artists will have plenty to look at on these pages."" —Susan Harari, Youth Services Book Review ""This book contains large pages making them accessible for young readers and the short paragraphs about each animal are engaging and fun. There is so much to learn about on each of these pages and the format makes it so that new readers are able to engage with the book. The illustrations throughout this book are vivid and realistic ensuring that you can tell the difference between similar animals. Each illustration brings a different animal to life and the large pages allow there to be more room for the animals to be spaced out so they are showcased individually rather than as a group. By going through this book there is something new to learn for people of all ages, dive in and start uncovering the mysteries hidden in our ocean."" —Adrien Carter, YA Books Central ""Certain to inspire countless future marine biologists."" —Olivia the Librarian, IG ""I adore an oversized book and this one is playful, education and filled with fascinating undersea creatures."" —Picture Book Recommendations, IG
