A Detailed Illustrated Guide That Reads Like a Picture Book This is the 'Sea Creatures' volume of the Naega Joahaneun Series, a beautifully illustrated field guide that feels just like a picture book. It introduces 39 species of sea creatures that live in or visit the waters around Korea. The ocean is home not only to fish we enjoy eating, like mackerel and saury, but also to countless mysterious creatures — spiky sea urchins, branch-like corals, star-shaped starfish, flying fish that soar above the waves, and the mighty whale, the largest animal on Earth. All are brought to life through over 100 vivid, detailed illustrations, with text written by a marine biologist in a way that's easy and engaging for children to read. The Ocean Is the Cradle of Life Without the ocean, there would be no life on Earth — after all, life first appeared in the sea. Even today, countless living things continue to thrive beneath its surface. Amazing Sea Creatures Living in Our Waters Surrounded on three sides by the East Sea, West Sea, and South Sea, Korea's coastal waters are full of wonders: jellyfish drifting like plastic bags, star-shaped starfish, spiky sea urchins, squid shooting through the water like rockets, and gray whales that appear and vanish like ghosts. This book showcases 39 remarkable sea creatures found in Korean waters. Meet Sea Creatures Up Close The local fish market is like a neighborhood marine museum, while the aquarium offers a peek into life beneath the waves. Along the sandy shore, all kinds of sea creatures wash up, turning the beach into a natural specimen room. The sea creatures illustrated by artist Park So-jeong can be found right in your neighborhood fish market, aquarium, or seaside. Set off on an ocean adventure with the engaging explanations of marine biologist Kim Woong-seo as your guide.
