Publisher Description: This children's picture book is based on a true story. It's about a Surfer and his close interaction with his ocean friends. These include tide pool creatures, seals, dolphins and turtles. He becomes close with a seal he names Mr. Silverhead and then the adventure begins. It's a fun and educational story that kids want to read again and again. The story took place in the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary where interaction with marine life occurs frequently. This teaches how interconnected we are to our marine cousins like dolphins, whales and seals. A portion of the proceeds from each book will be donated to non- profit organizations dedicated to protecting the marine environment. Age range is 2-8. |
