I absolutely adore this book, a simply genius story about fatherly devotion with exceptional art work. In this book, "Eric Carle introduces a little-known and fascinating facet of natural history." As we swim through the sea with Mr. Seahorse, we pass "right by a scary lion fish and other camouflaged creatures," a trumpet fish, a leaf fish, and a stone fish. We see several other kinds of sea creatures as well, "fathers caring for their eggs and babies in the most surprising ways," wonderful book!
