Ocean Anatomy by Julia Rothman

BATB score: 9/10 šš¦š¢
The most subtle and adorable way to alarm you about the effects of climate change to the polar bears, the orcas, and the narwhals.
Best for: any kid who dreamt to be a marine biologist but had to succumb to his/her asian parents and became a doctor, a finance audit, and/or any typical all-star office employee instead š§āš»šØāš»
Best as: okay, mid-adult-children-book. it's illustration -> definitely too cute but its description -> hey-yo scientific big words: carapace (turtle shell), echinoderms (sea stars), crustaceans (krills), pinnipeds (seals), and more nerdy terms! #bookstagram
Best to: buy it, read it, save it for your kids.
Side #blackmirror thought: and these sea creatures may only live to exist in books...
