Oceans in 30 Seconds

Written by Jen Green, Illustrated by Wesley Robins

30 Cool Topics for Junior Marine Explorers Explained in Half a Minute

This is a fun non-fiction book for students. It has six sections, each section has its own glossary to help students understand the vocabulary in the section. It covers one topic at a time, and it takes longer than 30 seconds for the topic, but gives a great overview. The topics have illustrations, diagrams, a 3 second sum-up, and some have 3-minute missions for students to try.

I think many students would enjoy this book. I am interested in getting more from this series.
