Discoverology Series - All books in this series

Modern technology has enabled today�s marine scientists to penetrate the oceans� depths as never before, where they continue to discover strange and exotic sea creatures. Creatures of the Deep, the newest title in Barron�s exciting Discoverology Series, takes young readers on a fascinating descent into the sea�s dark and mysterious depths where, at nearly two miles below the surface, they encounter such creatures as—

Viperfish, fierce fish with hinged jaws and outsized, needlelike teeth
Amphipods, almost totally transparent sea creatures with huge eyes
Sperm Whales, giants even among whales, who are able to reach the oceans� greatest depths . . . and many others

Pictured and described in these pages are fish that make their own light, colossal squid measuring up to 49 feet with hooked tentacles, and many other extraordinary denizens of a dark, hostile world that until recently was unknown to science. Featuring vivid color illustrations on every page, this unusual volume also has pop-up illustrations of sea creatures, pull-tabs, wheels, and flaps that add vivid detail to young readers� undersea discoveries. (Ages 8 and older)
