Painterly undersea images matched with a lyrical, informative text offer readers an inspiring introduction to the ocean's inhabitants in Young Explorer's Guide to Undersea Life by Pam Armstrong, illus. by Ket Tom Conway. Readers follow a sea star as it finds dinner (a mussel), while a purple shore crab ""harvests a tasty salad of small green algae growing on the rocks."" Scientific names are provided, as is a glossary of sea-related words. )
