Sea Animals
A walk from the shore to the deep blue sea
Also in: Morske živali (Slovenian) · Morské zvieratá (Slovak)
Down by the Shore
A little crab scuttles sideways among the stones. Her claws snip up crumbs, and her hard shell keeps her safe like a tiny shield.
1
In the Rocks
An octopus hides in the shady rocks. She holds on tight with eight arms, and when she gets a fright she changes colour until she looks just like a stone.
2
The Coral Garden
A coral reef is an underwater garden full of colours. Shoals of little fish flit by, and a seahorse curls his tail around a plant to hold on.
3
Out at Sea
Far from shore, dolphins play in the waves. The father is a bull, the mother is a cow, and their baby calf drinks his mother's milk.
4
Giant of the Deep
The whale is the biggest animal on Earth — bigger than a bus! The male is a bull, the female a cow, the baby a calf. At the top he puffs a tall misty spout.
5
On the Sandy Beach
A sea turtle glides with wide flippers, like a bird in the air. On the beach, the mother digs a little hole and lays her eggs inside.
