By the Sea: Life Along the Coast

Coasts have always been the starting point of discovery—whether by
explorers searching for new lands or children sifting through the sand
for beautiful shells.
This trip around the world’s oceans provides hours of fun and learning
in a series of highly detailed double-page spreads that look at every
aspect of critical coastal habitats, including the ebb and flow of tides;
life in a coastal settlement; artistic depictions of seashores; native
animals and plants; the whaling industry; tourism; and climate change.
The book also provides a Twenty-First-Century corrective to West-
ern-centric narratives about exploration and colonialism. Interspersed
throughout are meticulously detailed maps of the world’s largest
oceans with historic events, figures and scientific facts highlighted.
