An ode to celebrating the differences between the animals that live in a coral reef community, this colorful, chunky board book is a work of art meant to be displayed face-out on nursery bookshelves.

The marine plants, animals, and fish in this bright, underwater-view board book are all unique in their own ways, but together, they form a community of neighbors helping each other with food, shelter, and even safety. Toddlers will meet clams, corals, fish, turtles, sea grasses, and even algae in this diverse ecosystem sometimes referred to as a “rainforest of the sea.”

In the Coral Reef is part of the LAYERED VIEW board book series celebrating the ways in which our differences make the world a diverse place. Whether examining the unique needs of every flower in a garden or the special qualities of every puppy in a dog park, every die-cut page of a LAYERED VIEW book adds a level to the story—all building to one gorgeous, multi-dimensional scene perfect for displaying on a bookshelf or a bedroom shelf. Rich with special effects like foil and embossing, LAYERED VIEW board books are a beautiful, playful way to introduce new perspectives to the little learners in your life.
