Your Bedroom Is an Ocean! Bring the Sea Home with Reusable Glow-In-The-Dark (Bpa-Free!) Stickers of Sharks Whales Dolphins Octopus Narwhals
- Tsunamis can thunder in at 500 miles per hour, on a good day.
- The water emitting from hydrothermal vents deep beneath the surface can reach up to 750 degrees Fahrenheit.
- The planet's largest mountain range is not the Andes...it's the Mid-Oceanic ridge and it's nearly ten times longer than it's above-the-surface counterpart, clocking in at a mind-boggling 40,390 miles.
- Have you heard of The Bloop? It's not a children's TV character; it's the largest "ocean sound" that has ever been recorded, and it happened in 1997.
- There are over 3 million shipwrecks peppering our ocean floors.
- 91 percent of sea creatures have yet to be discovered, which means marine biologists still have a lot of work to do. Want more? Don't worry. As the universe's largest inhabited space, the world's oceans have plenty of information to offer, all of which will be folded within the pages of our bubbly book. More than just a textbook, though, Your Bedroom Is An Aquarium! is also jam-packed with stunning photographs and textile add-ons like stickers that will help kids and parents alike submerge themselves into this perplexing underwater adventure.
