Ocean: A Photicular Book by Dan Kainen & Mara Grunbaum

A New York Times bestseller, Ocean is like being on a dive.

Using Photicular technology—an innovative lenticular-based technology that uses precision sliding lenses and four-color video imagery—each image is like a 3D movie on the page, delivering a rich, fluid, immersive visual experience. Open the book, and the reader is swept into the magic of an underwater world, face-to-face with a floating Yellow-Banded Sweetlips; with a glow-in-the-dark Deep-Sea Anglerfish; with a Sea Horse swaying in balletic motion; with a Sand Tiger Shark gliding along the ocean floor, its gaze haunting, its hook-toothed mouth gulping open and closed.

The text by Carol Kaufmann enchants with its descriptions of coral reefs; a journey on Alvin, the 17-ton submersible; and a meditation on our oceans. Then, for each creature, she writes a lively and informative essay, along with vital statistics—size, habitat, range, diet, and more.
