Octopuses

In this series, each book covers a particular group of sea animals, including the natural history, adaptations, population status (safe, threatened or endangered), interactions with humans and other animals, and conservation methods. The text begins with a "you are here" description of a deep-sea meeting between the reader and the creature, including where to look for the animal and the equipment needed to find it and join it in its watery home. The book then continues to explain this wondrous creature that the reader has just met.
