Book Reviews of the The Sea Around Us, Special Edition

Customer Review: Not so interesting for kids
Summary: 3 Stars

I bought this book to read to my son and really it's long and tedious and I don't think we'll finish it. For one thing, it goes by the billions of years theory which we don't subscribe to since there really isn't evidence, just speculation. There is lots of good scientific information for someone who wants to know a lot on this subject but I don't think we'll remember most of it. I thought we were buying the edition with photos, which would have helped, but it wasn't. I think we'll try Answers In Genesis' The Ocean Book (Wonders of Creation) which also has a study guide available and good, descriptive pictures.
