The author beautifully describes the importance of the ocean in sustaining life of all living plants and animals. Through the eyes of children with their doggie companions, the question of “what is the ocean?” is answered. Captivating illustrations and imagery show the continuous cycle of water on earth and teach young readers that water is in all the cells of plants and animals, and even in their own bodies. Readers will be surprised to find that their drinking water was ""once in the bodies of dinosaurs!"" When children learn that the ocean is part of them, they will hopefully learn to love and appreciate it, and take care of the ocean as they grow older.

Watson's other recent releases include Defending Orcas (2022), Urgent! (2021), Death of a Whale (2021), and Orcapedia (2020). Sarah Jane Borg has been a professional artist for 40 years known for her portraits of dogs, horses and people in both watercolors and oils. Born in Devon, England, Sarah helped set up Sea Shepherd UK in 1985 which launched the campaign to stop the annual pilot whale slaughter in the Danish Fareo Islands. Concerned about children growing up in a doomsday scenario, she was delighted to team up with Paul Watson to help them understand their connection to the ocean.

Reviews for We are the Ocean

"""Magical illustrations follow pairs of children and their dogs as they learn about the importance of water and the interconnectedness of nature. A Dalmatian rubbing noses with a whale, a pooch in boots dancing between icebergs, and a young child setting sail on a winding river are just some among the diverse cast of characters in this story about preserving and caring for our oceans--and, by extension, ourselves.""-- ""Foreword"""
