Synopsis

The Ocean Map presents our planet through an
ocean-centred map. It introduces the principles behind different ways of
representing the world, helping readers understand how maps shape the way we
see our planet. Designed for children aged 7-11, the book explores natural
features, human-made structures and ocean habitats, with detailed spreads that
reveal how science, technology and exploration operate in, on and around the ocean.
Case studies such as the Challenger Deep, the Suez Canal and the Great Pacific
Garbage Patch help explain the impacts of human activity alongside the
importance of ocean research and conservation. Key scientific language is
explained clearly, supported by a glossary, and hidden animals throughout
the book invite active engagement.
