This is one of a series which has a storybook approach to non-fiction. Information introduced in the narrative is extended under fold-out flaps, where cartoons illustrate more quirky facts or take a deeper look at relevant topics. This book describes the voyages of a research submersible to the wreck of the "Titanic" and to the "black smokers", or underwater geysers, near the Galapagos Islands. It provides facts such as the number of people the submersible can accommodate and how deep it dives, and about its close shave with a giant swordfish, as well as the kinds of creatures that live at the bottom of the sea.
