What can blow bubble rings and swim through them? What has teeth on its eyeballs? What creature makes itself nearly invisible to predators by using camouflage? What poops out sand? More than 25 percent of all sea creatures live in coral reefs, also called \"rain forests of the sea.\" This book introduces readers to everything from playful dolphins to deadly Irukandji jellyfish, leafy sea dragons to brainy octopuses, and walking sharks to whimsical-looking zebra seahorses. With gorgeous patterns and colors and substantial entries exploring each creature's anatomy, diet, threats to survival, and more, Frané Lessac brings us a truly fascinating undersea exploration of the awe-inspiring Australian reefs.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFrané Lessac \u003c\/b\u003eis the creator of the companion book \u003ci\u003eA Is for Australian Animals \u003c\/i\u003eas well as \u003ci\u003eUnder the Milky Way\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eUnder the Southern Cross\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eIsland Counting 1 2 3\u003c\/i\u003e.
