About this ebook
From the illustrator who showed the periodic table in a whole new light and gave us his fresh spin on physics, biology, astronomy, rocks and minerals, planet earth and chemistry, comes Basher Science: Oceans, Making Waves! created and illustrated by Simon Basher and written by Dan Green to give us a look into our magical and mysterious oceans.
Not content to stay on dry land, Basher takes to the high seas in this friendly guide to everything above and below the oceans. Meet the members of the Shoreline Gang, the Deep-down Dandies, and the characters in the Open-water Crew. Encounter deep trenches, curious creatures, mountains taller than any you will find on land, and the mixers and stirrers that keep the water flowing. Throughout it all, Basher's bold, cheerful artwork pairs with rock solid scientific information to personalize readers' understanding of Earth's mysterious underwater world.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The Basher Science book OCEANS MAKING WAVES! is a great book to introduce students to some key concepts about the ocean in a fun way. The writer, Dan Green, does an excellent job of making the text fun for students to read. Each of the topics in the book is presented in a story narrative format. For example, when students read about the Mid-ocean Ridge, instead of just reading facts, the author turns the Mid-ocean Ridge into a character who is telling his own story. The use of first person makes the book more accessible for students because it gives the information in a more informal way. Students will also really enjoy the cartoons. The glossary and index help to add to the user-friendliness of this text. This book would be great to use in a science class during a unit on oceans. It would also been interesting to use this book in an English class to discuss how to effectively use first-person when writing.
