Adventures in the Greater Puget Sound

ADVENTURES IN GREATER PUGET SOUND captures the magic of marine life in this unique region. An educational guide and activity book, it is designed for 8 to 12 year olds, but adults will be tempted to try their hands at a variety of challenges ranging from hidden pictures to crossword puzzles and decoding the "Captain's Secret Message." The rich green waters of Greater Puget Sound are the hub for a multitude of marine activities. Colorful sea anemones and shy octopuses undulate their tentacles on the sea floor, while orca whales breach and yachts and ferry boats wend their watery ways at the surface. ADVENTURES IN GREATER PUGET SOUND includes concise and definitive information on a host of creatures and boats from wrinkled whelks to eagles to oil freighters. The activities are designed to reinforce text information. The book is illustrated with more than 150 pen and ink drawings.
