Sparse text conveys the numerous characteristics of an ocean, including the water, the beach, and the plants that grow in both environments.  Fish and birds are part of the ocean too.  What can a person do with an ocean?  Readers can find activities on, under, and beside the water that can be visualized through vibrant, cut-paper collage illustrations.  Head for the nearest large body of water and have some water fun after reading this beautiful book!
