The Ocean In Your Bathtub

The Ocean in Your Bathtub

Author: Seth Fishman Illustrated by Isabel Greenberg

2020

Age range: 4-8

Take a splash into The Ocean in Your Bathtub, and explore why everyone on the planet is connected by either weather, water, or through food by the oceans. Kids will learn that no matter where they live: at the beach, the city, a farm, mountains or by a river, the oceans can impact their daily life. They will learn about the water cycle, how it helps to grow our food and how it helps us to breath on land- “seven out of every ten gulps of air you take contain oxygen that comes from plant life in the ocean.” An ocean book will not be complete however, without mentioning the human impact on the oceans directly or indirectly, and a reminder to be thoughtful of our actions.
