5 out of 5 stars
Great book with lots to touch!
I bought this after buying a cheaper, disappointing touch-and-feel ocean book with textured areas too small to even feel. This one is perfect! Every page has a large textured area to feel and some also have flaps to lift. Even the cover is textured. I’d recommend this to anyone with young kids! I’m including pictures of two pages to show the size of the textured areas.

This is the most wonderful book I’ve seen. I love the octopus page. Okay mama is more excited about it then my baby. I played more with the octopus page then my baby. 😂
If you buy the book for a baby you need to know that they are able to rip the pages and the little flip pages inside the book. So you need to be careful if it’s important to you that the book stays intact.

The pictures are beautiful and the kids can learn a lot with this book. The textures and materials are really nice. My baby girl loves to touch all the different materials.

This book is adorable! I was actually surprised how informative it is. My little guy is only 7 months right now, but I can't wait until he can start to understand what's going on in these pages. I primarily bought this for the touch and feel aspect, but am so happy with how this book will age with him. He likes touching the smooth whale and the slipper dolphin. The sandpaper shark is also fun. So far, all of the pages have stood up to him dropping it and drooling on it. As a once-budding marine biologist, books like this ignited my fire for marine knowledge, so I hope this helps my little guy do the same. So fun and cute, I would love to buy more books like this.

Loved the touchable interactions a little one can have on each page, and that the text can be enjoyed by a little bit older child too. I got one book for my kids, and another one in the series as a gift for family.

5.0 out of 5 stars One year old loves this
Reviewed in Canada on April 21, 2017
These books are fantastic! We have both this one and the Dinosaurs Touch & Explore.
My daughter (she's 1) loves feeling the different textures and lifting up the peek-a-boo flaps. The books have many different textures unlike some touch and feel books which have ones that are almost all alike.
This book will also grow with your child because there are many different facts and stories about ocean creatures (or dinosaurs in the dinosaur book), so they can learn from the text in the book once they are old enough to read. Note: The sentences in the book/facts outlined are more like reference material than a story, but I think that will be more interesting for older kids anyways.
We're very happy with this purchase. It's one our daughter will always pull from the shelf.

My 18 month old grandson loves to read. This new book has been one of his favorites. He loves to sit in a welcoming lap and say the name of each animal on the pages. I am so pleased that my gift was a big success!
