Lapping at the sandy shores, stretching from the North Pole to the South Pole and from North America to Africa, the Atlantic Ocean is constantly changing shape and size and is always traveling. It has fascinated people for ages and still does today. Scientists study the Atlantic, fishermen search for its schools of fish, artists paint it, and poets write about it. Here, the power and grace of the Atlantic Ocean are beautifully captured in Brian Karas's sparkling text and paintings.
This is an excellent children's book that can be used as a fantastic example of voice in writing. Not only does the book provide a unique presentation of facts about the Atlantic ocean, but it is told in the perspective of the ocean. In elementary writing classes (1-5) this is an excellent book to model voice.
