About the authors
Roger Priddy is the creator of over two hundred best selling books for young children including Wipe Clean ABC, First 100 Words, and Fuzzy Bee.
When he was at school he couldn't decide between being a patisserie chef or going to art college. On the advice of his father he chose art college and trained as an illustrator before becoming a designer at Usborne Publishing.
Roger's love for children's early learning has led him to create some of the most successful children's non-fiction books, first at Dorling Kindersley (My First Word Book, Incredible Cross Sections and My First Cook Book) before he set up Priddy Books with St. Martins Press in New York where several of his books have sold over a million copies each including First 100 Words, My Big Animal Book and Happy Baby Words.
In total he has sold over 65 million books worldwide and his books have been translated into over 30 languages.
He says "It is always rewarding to see a child enjoying and learning something from one of our books, especially the babies when you think it could be the first book they have ever seen.
I am very lucky to have a career where you get to think up fun ways to teach a kid how to write their letters and learn their first words whilst finding out about Dinosaurs at the same time!"
Roger lives in London and has three children, who have given him most of his best ideas for his books.

This book reminds me of National Geographic's First Big Book of the Sea, but it's much smaller (of course), and far better bound (we're missing pages from our Big Books, whereas this is bound well with string). The sentences can be surprisingly long and occasionally verbose, compared with the National Geographic Big Books and National Geographic Readers, but it's still a similar format. I'm reading with a young child (4) so shorter sentences help (she likes to repeat what she's learned). Here's an example of a typically long sentence: "Algae: Types of simple plants that mostly live in the sea, from microscopic bloblike algae that float in the water or live inside some animals' bodies, up to huge seaweed many yards long.")
Also the end of the book (last section before the Glossary, "Reefs at Risk") really ends on a down-note. Of course we all should really worry about what's happening to coral reefs as a result of human activities. But I think it's nice how National Geographic handles this... they mention all the threats, and then talk about ways that we can help mitigate those threats (even if it's just by learning more and sharing what you've learned). All that said, we still love the book! My daughter asks for this one frequently, and the photos are gorgeous, plus the formatting lends a fun feel to the writing!
