Marine biologists believe coral reefs existed 400 million years ago, when dinosaurs roamed the earth. Today this active environment is home to about 20,000 kinds of brilliantly colored corals, plants, and animals--more sea creatures than are found anywhere else in the world. The Great Barrier Reef in Australia is so large that astronauts can see it from outer space!
Young Spanish speakers and Spanish language learners will enjoy this new translation of Gibbon's informative text, derived from the newly updated English edition, which was vetted by a scientist working at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. The simple Spanish vocabulary is reinforced by clear and detailed illustrations that guide readers on their journey into the unique lives of coral reefs.
