Editorial Reviews

Product Description

An information and puzzle book combined, which explores underwater habitats, from coral reefs to Arctic waters, from the ocean bed to the rocky shore. The book focuses on a wide variety of activities, from shipwreck or reef dives, to undersea oil-rig maintenance and deep-sea exploration. The combination of divers, sealife and underwater machines creates an entertaining and instructive game for children of all ages, and should afford them hours of enjoyment. Each underwater scene is enlivened by colourful and realistic illustrations, while keys at the back provide answers when a child gets stuck. A comprehensive index can also be used as a fact finder. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent ! Entertaining and enjoyable!, August 24, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Great Undersea Search (Look, Puzzle, Learn Series) (Paperback)

Gave this series to a 6 and 9 year old last Fall. This is their favorite book. Educational, entertaining, and fun to find the "seach for" items. PLUS - they learned an incredible amount about Sea Life and Sea Animals - that they rememeber MONTHS later.Adults and children love this. Wonderful "hands on" book for kids!

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent for kids that like "hidden picture" books, September 28, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: The Great Undersea Search (Look, Puzzle, Learn Series) (Paperback)

The illustrations are fantastic and my son really loves to look for all the hidden objects (some of which are very hard to find). The text is really good also and we very highly recommend this whole series.

My boys LOVE these search books. This book has wonderful underwater illustrations and the searching is usually pretty easy. Also includes a few facts.
