Coral Reefs by
Jason Chin
The title page shows a young girl taking a book called Coral Reefs off the library shelf.
Beginning to read about the structure of corals, the girl wanders around the
library while coral reefs spring up behind her leaving pools of water on the
table. Soon ocean water is pouring in the windows and the girl is swimming in
the reef. At the end of the book, the girl leaves the library. With wet hair
and dripping flip-flops, she runs over to share the book with her friends.
Titanic: Eyewitness Books by Simon Adams
We only have Mary Pope Osborne to blame. After listening to
Tonight on the Titanic, the kids had a million more questions about the great
ship. This book has plenty of graphics, photographs, and informative captions
to read multiple times. Days later, E. is still reminding us that the ship was
the length of 22 buses. And he is convinced that he would have definitely had one of the first-class tickets.
