The Sea

by Nina Morgan

Published 25 November 1993
This is part of a multi-volume encyclopaedia which is intended to help parents and teachers who are looking for reference books to supplement the first years at school. The range of titles reflects both the topics which are popular with this age group and the concerns of the National Curriculum, and the series is researched by Brian Williams, a former editor of the "Children's Britannica", in conjunction with educational consultants. Focusing on the world's oceans, this book examines features such as waves and tides, life under the water and at the water's edge, and the sea's rich resources and the need to protect them.
