Wild Sea Creatures: Sharks, Whales, and Dolphins! by Martin Kratt and Chris Kratt -- ADVISABLE

Kratt, Martin and Chris Kratt Wild Sea Creatures: Sharks, Whales, and Dolphins! (Wild Kratts), 32 pgs. Random House, 2014. $3.99. Content: G.

The Kratt Brothers use their special powers to dive into the ocean, where they share details about such creatures as tiger sharks, sea turtles, blowfish, and squid. Each page has large type, short sentences, and entertaining illustrations to help young readers, although children may need help with such complex words as "activate," "predators," and "tentacles." While the book reads like fiction, with the Kratt Brothers inviting readers along on their adventure, fans of nonfiction and of sea creatures will appreciate the numerous interesting facts throughout the book.

EL (K-3) -- ADVISABLE. Reviewer: Caryn
