Better late than never, at Wrapped in Foil today<\/a> we have two children\u2019s picture books about deep sea exploration.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In Flying Deep <\/em>by Michelle Cusolito and illustrated by Nicole Wong, the reader is taken on a day-long ride in the submersible Alvin to the bottom of the ocean. Find out what you might see, how you might feel, even what you might eat and drink while cramped inside a three-person exploration craft. It is so real, you will want to stand up and stretch when you are done.<\/p>\n

The digital illustrations stay in the cool color plate and are appropriately dark in the deepest depths. The underwater creatures are beautifully drawn and detailed. Some of the spreads fill the pages lengthwise, giving even more sense of traveling down beneath the water.<\/p>\n

Flying Deep<\/em> is a wonderful adventure in book form. Climb in and explore the ocean depths today!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Years before the Alvin submersible, two men decided they wanted to be the first to explore the deepest ocean. In Otis and Will Discover the Deep: The Record-Setting Dive of the Bathysphere<\/em> by Barb Rosenstock and illustrated by Katherine Roy, readers learn that Otis Barton and Will Beebe designed a round metal ball they called a bathysphere to carry them far beneath the water. Because they were the first, they bravely faced the many dangers to successfully explore areas that no one had seen before and see sights no one could have imagined.<\/p>\n

Katherine Roy\u2019s watercolors are playful and full of action. The climax of the book, when the two reach the lowest point, is a surprising two-gatefold spread.<\/p>\n

Otis and Will Discover the Deep<\/em> is a suspenseful tribute to two brave men. It will appeal to budding marine biologists and engineers alike. Dive into a copy today.<\/p>\n
