The delightfully entertaining Octonauts will instantly appeal to children, while their sophisticated design and subversive humor will attract appreciative adults. Lushly layered and brightly colored illustrations create a teeming undersea universe that will dazzle readers' eyes, excite their imaginations, and tickle their funny bones. Reviews ""The crisply drafted pages bloom with fascinating detail: every tree, shadow, rock, and animal has an endearing, individual personality...the book itself is a lush visual treat."" - Utne Reader "It may be a picture book, but the pictures are what it is all about. We'll say right now that cute is a word that is probably impossible to avoid using in reference to the gang of 7 animals and one vegimal (part vegetable, part animal) who have underwater adventures...The illustrations are simply amazing: colourful digital cartoons that have the mark of becoming classics. Each page is chock full of details to pore over." - ArtMoCo "I can now report to you that The Octonauts & the Sea of Shade is just as charming, beautiful, funny, and adorable as the first Octonauts book. I highly recommend this to children and adults alike - especialy if those adults love intoxicating graphics and mysterious underwater worlds." - Treehouse Jukebox" About the Authors Meomi is Vicki Wong and Michael Murphy who live in Vancouver, Canada.
