Save the sea by Sarah Levete

Our oceans are in danger!

Sea ConservationStudying ocean conservation? In very simple language, this book looks at sea conservation. It covers: pollution, rubbish, over fishing, oil spills, and climate change. The detailed, colourful photographs are informative, and interesting fact bubbles provide additional commentary. It would be a great resource to read with younger children.

In the book’s back, under ‘Further Reading’ the three websites listed are senior primary level. However the recommended books are old - the newest was published in 2007 and the other two in 2004. Perhaps this reflects the lack of resources on the topic at this level. Suitable for junior primary.
