From the Inside Flap:
I am your sun, your golden star.
Plants catch my light and turn it into life! They pass my light to every living thing on land -- including YOU! -- and all the creatures in the seas.
A billion billion billion tiny plants are catching my light right now as they drift in your ocean. But these plants are soooo small you can't see them!
Come along and learn how my light flows from these tiny plants through all the ocean animals -- from sunlit waters to the deep dark ocean floor.
DIVE IN!
