A beautiful watercolor celebration of the love between ocean mamas and their babies, big and small.

From whales and dolphins, to hermit crabs and jellyfish, the ocean is filled with many different creatures. Join them on this imaginary undersea journey as ocean mamas care for their babies, each in their own special way! Because one thing is universal: there's no other love like that between mamas and their little ones.
 
With bright and beautiful watercolor illustrations comes this tender and heartwarming celebration of all the different mamas and babies you can find, especially those that live under the sea.
 
"Ideal for a read-aloud, this story’s clever, gentle rhymes and beautiful oceanic theme will delight caregivers and their children alike. A seamless combination of hand-painted and digital techniques make for eye-catching collages in crisp textures and vibrant colors. Recommended as a well-crafted, visually engaging bedtime read-aloud." -SLJ
