The underwater world of the coral reef comes alive in this latest title from bestselling duo Stella Blackstone and Clare Beaton. The interactive, hide-and-seek adventure follows an elusive seahorse as he swims through different watery scenes and meets anemones, crabs, starfish and eels. Simple, rhyming text encourages early readers' participation and introduces underwater vocabulary. Educational notes on coral reefs and sea creatures are included. Secret Seahorse makes a superb gift for children fascinated by the world that exists under the sea.
My two-year-old loves finding the seahorse and pointing to where it's hiding. I have to say that it's not quite so brilliantly genius as Clare Beaton's How Big Is A Pig, which is fun and teaches on so many levels, but it's still cute and a lot of fun.
An inspiration for a Blizzard

We got this book from the local library and during a blizzard we made a 6 foot mural based on this book. I'm no artist, but it kept my kids entertained the entire day and now hangs in my son's room. Naturally, we had to buy the book!
Beautiful illustrations

The illustrations in this book are beautiful as they are made from fabric collages. The section at the end on the coral reef and the different animals is a nice touch. My two year old likes this book a lot as he loves fish.
