Rate this book
Енциклопедиите от поредицата "Голяма книга за..." са много големи като размер книги, с богати детайлни илюстрации и любопитна информация. Подходящи са за любознателни деца от 5 до 8 години. Отличават се със специфичният стил на рисуване на Йовл Зомер характерен и разпознаваем по целия свят.

Обичаш ли океаните и моретата? Обитателите им изглеждат мистично, нали?

Някои са космати, други – покрити с люспи, трети имат перки, а четвърти нямат нито кости, нито мозък!

Как и къде точно живеят китовете, акулите, октоподите, костенурките, калмарите, скаридите и други подводни същества? Как се придвижват и как дишат? В „Голяма книга за дълбините“ те очакват отговорите на всички тези въпроси. Ще се научиш също как да откриваш морските обитатели по брега и как да говориш като спец по темата за дълбините. Ще обсъдим и един важен проблем – замърсяването на океаните и моретата. Няма да издаваме повече, а ще те оставим да се потопиш сред любопитните факти, забавните задачи и детайлните илюстрации.

This is a big book (about sixty pages, but heavily illustrated) yet my kids were engaged enough to sit through it all in one reading. So, Zommer's certainly done something right! :-) It's full of facts and even I learned a few things. It's well organized and, on the surface, the illustrations are appealing though I admit that I am really not a fan of the way the creatures themselves are drawn... they are always shown with two eyes and this really distorts some of them because sometimes we really should see only one eye because of the way the rest of the creature is drawn (for example, if we are seeing a side view of penguin or a whale, we should NOT be seeing two eyes!) I honestly found it a little creepy (which is personal taste) but also not really the best in terms of educating kids as to how the creatures really look. The book has big two-page spreads and some of the spreads are wonderful, like the tide pool with all the diversity, then others are strangely homogeneous (why, with all the amazing beauty of different types of whales, does the spread about Whales only show sperm whales?!) I was also disappointed there is no Bibliography or suggestions for further reading (though there is an index). I'm glad we read it because my kids were so interested in it and we did learn some things, but I'm not sure I'll rush right out to read the others in the series.

"¿Sabías que la ballena azul es más grande que una cancha de baloncesto o que el rape hembra lleva su propia bombilla colgada sobre la cabeza? Y, ¿sabías también que el pulpo tiene tres corazones?

En El gran libro del mar, publicado por la Editorial Juventud, podrás descubrir y conocer las maravillas que ahondan el vasto océano, curiosidades tales como que el pez espada es uno de los diez peces más rápidos del mundo o que si cortas una medusa por la mitad se convierte en dos. La tortuga, por ejemplo, tiene unos párpados transparentes que usa como si fueran gafas de bucear y el tiburón tigre saca su estómago por la boca para lavarlo después de comer, brrrr.

Mientras aprendes podrás jugar a buscar y encontrar la pequeña sardina escondida en cada página.
Yuval Zommer, tras el éxito de El gran libro de los bichos, publicado simultáneamente en siete idiomas, y de El gran libro de las bestias, vuelve a sorprendernos, entre chapoteos marinos, con un sinfín de curiosidades del mundo submarino. Se graduó en el Royal College of Art de Londres, con un máster en ilustración. Ha trabajado como director creativo para importantes agencias de publicidad, pero su verdadera pasión son los libros ilustrados." Elena del Pozo

This book has a thorough overview of marine life and ocean habitats. It is easy to read that adults can enjoy as well as children. The book even gives a reminder of avoiding plastic and the damages of overfishing to save our oceans and the creatures that live in them.

Picture book/ non fiction book that has many facts about creatures that live in the oceans. It details the importance of protecting the creatures that live in the oceans and their habitats. The pages have lovely detailed illustrations and easy to read information. The book also has questions and answers relating to facts about the oceans and the creatures. At the end of the book there are answers to how many animals can be found on each page, this can encourage the children to look at each page and all of the creatures. Could be used within EYFS/KS1/lower KS2 as part of topic work or a part of the book corner encouraging children to engage with non fiction texts.

This is the third book in the series and a worthy companion to “The Big Book of Bugs” and “The Big Book of Beasts.” As you would expect from the title, this book explores the oceans of the world and is an excellent introduction to share with young children, possibly helping to spark an interest in the minds of future marine biologists. It is a large format book, being 24x35cm in size, which allows the reader to become immersed in each double-page spread, all of which are in wonderful shades of blue.
All sorts of ocean creatures are explored including sea turtles, flying fish, jelly fish, krill, rays, tuna and much more. The ever-popular whales, sharks and dolphins are not forgotten as well as penguins and seals. There are pages explaining fins and flippers, and gills and blowholes, as well as a summary of the dangers facing the oceans including plastic pollution.
Each page is full of movement and life. Sea creatures swim around the edges, leap from the waves and lurk deep in the dark depths. There is a question heading each section, such as why is a whale so big, is a jellyfish made from jelly or what on earth is a krill? This is answered and there are other snippets of information amongst the illustrations. There are also fifteen small sardines to be found amongst the pages, encouraging readers to explore the pictures in detail, not that they need an excuse as they are irresistible. A fascinating book and one that delights on each read as new information and new creatures are discovered.

Šīs grāmatas, manuprāt, ir labas ar to, ka tās aktualitāti iegūst aizvien no jauna, bērnam augot un attīstītos viņa spējām noturēt uzmanību, saskatīt detaļas, kā arī interesēm par pasauli. Par Yuval Zommer ilustrācijām nav jāstāsta, tās ir jāredz un jānovērtē savām acīm. Ļoti iesaku!

We were fortunate enough to attend a ‘meet the author’ session with Yuval Zommer whereupon he took us through how he created this book along with the other ‘Big Book of...’ books in the collection. ‘The Big Book of the Blue’ is beautifully illustrated and informative, lending itself well to use in ‘topic exploration’ in school. With environmental undertones, the book gives opportunity to lead into conversations surrounding global warming, single-use plastics and environmental pollution as well as a plethora of creative projects. I thoroughly recommend seeking out the others in the collection too which play around with children’s expectations of books as objects and the way they ‘should be’ read.

The illustrations are amazing, however there’s not too much info here. Some spreads have only 4 unique facts about the animal. Others mention facts but don’t explain, like the page that says sea turtles don’t get stung by jellyfish... No explanation. My daughter asked why and of course I looked it up. But I wished the book had said.
Overall, a gorgeous book that’s been hyped a lot, but lacks in thoroughness. We liked Life On Earth: Ocean better.

Why we chose this book:
To learn about the ocean! The cover art caught my eye and the synopsis sounded like a great fit for my question machine, aka T. Thames and Hudson provided a review copy.

Mom's Review (V)

A captivating and visually stunning introduction to ocean life for young children.

The cover art set me up with high expectations. You should definitely judge this book by its cover! Not only is the art lovely and fun, but there is a sardine hidden on several pages that the reader must find. T loves playing hidden object games in books, and that has overshadowed the actual reading at times. We still haven't found all the sardines yet! The content is just as fun as the art. Two-page spreads introduce different creatures, such as crabs, seals, and deep-sea fish. Text is brief and interesting, just the right amount of information and just the right kind of information for three-year-old T. Did you know that there is a fish called a blobfish? It's shaped like a blob. T and I both learned some fun facts, and this is a book we can return to time and time again. Sometimes we are in a mood for a long story time, and reading cover to cover works well for that. Sometimes we just want to read a little bit, and picking a few creatures to cover works well for that. There is so much that it offers. Curious kiddos will love it.

Son's Review (T)
(age 3)
While reading:
Son: Look, there's the swimmer! And there's the swimmer on another page. He goes to all spots in the book. I think he snorkels every day. I think he's wearing a blowhole.

Mom: It is kind of like a blowhole. That thing is called a snorkel, and it's how he can breathe.
_____________________________________________
Son: (pointing to seahorse's coronet): Is that his crown? I have a question. The question was why do you also like sea turtles?

Mom: It is like a crown, it's called a coronet. I like sea turtles because I think they are beautiful, and I think it is neat how they lay their eggs. And I also like seahorses. I think they're cute.
_____________________________________________
Son: I think that's interesting.

Mom: What do you think is interesting? Something about the jellyfish?

Son: Yeah. About the glowing dinner.
(Some glow to put other fish off their jellyfish-dinner plans.)
_____________________________________________
Son: Why are they called ogrefish? I think it's 'cuz they have fangs and ogres have fangs, too.

Mom: That's a good guess for why they're called ogrefish.

After reading:
Mom: Have you had a favorite animal?

Son: The favorite creature was this one [a whale].

Mom: Is there something really cool you learned?

Son: Why when the fish come to igvestigate do they [anglerfish] snap them up right away?

Mom: So that they can eat them fast before the fish escapes. If there was not a lot of food and a fish came right up to you, what would you do?

Son: I would run away. First I would eat the food and then I would run away. I would search for more food. Why does this fish have a light?

Mom: To attract fish to come up close so it can eat them. What's the coolest thing you've learned?

Son: I like this one [the angler fish]. What fish are these?

Mom: Those are blobfish. They have a squishy body.

Son: I have a question. The question is this: can they sting? I think they bite.

Mom: It doesn't say, but it doesn't look like they have stingers.

Son: I think they bite humans.

Mom: Oh, they are soooo soooo deep. You won't come into contact with one of those. They live deeper than people swim.

Son: I would like to come down here. I would investigate under the ocean. I would want to meet this one [the blobfish] 'cuz I would want to see what it does. Just the blobfish.

The Big Book of the Blue is the third book in Yuval Zommer’s ‘The Big Book of’ series. It follows on from the publication of The Big Book of Bugs and The Big Book of Beasts and readers are in for yet another treat. If you are not familiar with Zommer’s work and ‘The Big Book’ series you are seriously missing out. Like the previous books in the series, it is full of fascinating facts, questions and answers.

Ever wondered…Is a seahorse a horse? Is a jellyfish made from jelly? Why does an octopus need eight arms? Why does a crab run sideways? How many tins can one tuna fill? Well, The Big Book of the Blue has the answers to all of these questions and more.

The Book of the Big Blue is produced across twenty nine double page spreads. Each double page spread focuses on a specific topic or creature and is laid out in an inviting way for the reader. The pages are colourful and are packed full of stunning illustrations that are detailed and vibrant. Each double page spread begins with a heading and is supplemented by an interesting question that immediately grabs the reader’s attention. Subheadings are scattered across the page and are accompanied by facts and informative chunks of text. Zommer’s clever use of puns adds humour to the book which readers will delight in. Get ready for fin-tastic fish , sss-wimming snakes and ink-teresting octopus facts.

Zommer also pays attention to the environmental issues that the oceans face and details the actions of humans that are causing the problems. I sincerely hope all readers, children and adults, pay close attention to this part as we can actively help to look after our oceans and the wonderful creatures that call them home.

My favourite double page is the the deep dive page where the reader is treated to a dive into the ocean and an examination of what is going on at different depths - fascinating stuff. And when all the information gets too much, there are fabulous ‘can you find’ activities. Readers are challenged to find specific things within individual spreads such as finding something that does not belong in the dolphin habitat (plastic litter). There is also a more generic challenge in which readers are given the task of finding the sneaky sardine who has found his way into fifteen of the spreads.

This feels like a proper grown-up non-fiction book and young readers will no doubt love that there is a contents, an index and a glossary that comes in the form of ‘Fishy Phrases’ so young ocean explorers can speak like an expert.

The book is a fabulous way for children to learn about the wonders of the ocean and the creatures within it. It is a brilliant book for any budding oceanographer and will be devoured by children who want to find out about everything that lives in the ‘big blue’. The book is published as a large format coffee-table sized book with thick pages that will hold up to endless hours of exploration.

Recommended for 6+.

Hallo ihr Süßen💕
Dieses Buch ist einfach nur der Wahnsinn und eine ganz große Empfehlung von mir! Schön alleine das riesige Format, machen es zu einem richtigen hingucker! Es ist wirklich einfach ein Traum und egal wie oft ich es auch anschaue, ich entdecke immer weider etwas neues. Man lernt sehr vieles über das Meer und seine einzigartigen Bewohner. Für mich gibt es nichts schöneres und zu gleich nichts was mich so sehr erschreckt. Denn niemand weiß was sich unterhalb der Wasseroberfläche abspielt. Wir Menschen sehen nur einen winzigen Teil dieser wundervollen und zum Teil auch erschreckenden Welt. Und doch sind wir einfach von ihr Fasziniert. In diesem Buch lernen wir diese wunderschöne Welt kennen und man lernt vieles dazu. Jede Seite lädt förmlich dazu ein, das Wesen und den Ozean zu Erforschen und sich auf eine unendliche Reise zu begeben. Ganz besonders haben mir auch die kleinen Rätsel und Such Aufgaben gefallen. Denn direkt am Anfang des Buches wird man dazu animiert es genau und auf jeden Millimeter zu Erforschen, denn man soll im Buch 14 Sardinen suchen. Was einfacher klingt als es am Ende dann wirklich wahr! Einfach ein traumhaft schönes Buch, mit Illustrationen die einen Träumen lassen. Man möchte einfach immer mehr und mehr Erforschen und man fängt förmlich an jede einzelne Seite auf zu säugen und sich noch mehr mit den Wesen zu beschäftigen. Das perfekte Buch für die Grundschule, aber auch für den Kindergarten. Aber macht euch darauf gefasst das die Fantasie der Kinder angeregt werden wird und die Fragen nur so heraus Sprudeln werden! Ganz lieben Gruß Sonja/Shaaniel

Veľká kniha o morských tvoroch je fascinujúca kniha o morskom svete. Jej ilustrátor Yuval Zommer sa vo svojej tvorbe rád inšpiruje rôznymi živočíchmi a tak vznikla séria pekných detských kníh, každá zameraná na iné tvory.

Veľká kniha o morských tvoroch je, ako už samotný názov napovedá, o živočíchoch žijúcich v moriach a oceánoch. Nájdete v nej ryby a drsnokožce, mäkkýše, kôrovce, plazy a cicavce aj s ich hlavnými charakteristikami.
Dozviete sa z nej ako sa morské živočíchy v mori pohybujú aj ako pod vodou dýchajú.
Poznatky o všetkých morských tvoroch sú podané s humorom, pútavo a stručne, takže ich dokážu vstrebať už najmenší čitatelia. Verím však, že mnohé informácie budú fascinovať i staršie deti a aj vás, dospelých.
Vedeli ste napríklad, že medúzy nemajú mozog, krv, uši ani srdce? A že taká chobotnica má srdcia až tri? Deti istotne prekvapí, že nafukovacie ryby - štvorzubce, obľúbení hrdinovia animovaných rozprávok, sú najjedovatejšími rybami na svete, alebo že taký mečiar dokáže svojim špicom na hlave prepichnúť dokonca lodnú palubu.
Okrem toho v knihe na deti čakajú rôzne hľadacie úlohy aj s riešeniami a malé zamyslenie sa nad tým ako človek svojou činnosťou ohrozuje moria, oceány a život v nich.

It should probably be stated up front that I adore the ocean so I am definitely in the target audience for this book. If you too love the big blue, or you have a child who does, then this is a book that should be on your shelf.

Zommer has created several of these big, beautiful non-fiction books about different topics. I have read most of them and enjoyed them all, but this is my favorite...again though - I do love the ocean. Perhaps if you love bugs then you will really like this one, but love his book on bugs.

This book is beautiful. The artwork alone makes me want to slowly page through it for days. I love the soft paintings. The text is why this one should be on your shelf though. I love how each page starts with a question that sounds very much like a question my children would ask me about that animal. I love that you can hunt for sardines on each page. I love that the facts are interesting but brief. And I love that there is just so much to read.

This is a book that ocean fans and underwater animal lovers will want to read again and again.

The Big Book of the Blue is a visually appealing information book that triumphantly showcases ocean life in all its splendour, from sharks to sea snakes to flying fish.

Yuval Zommer's books always hold a popular appeal in primary classrooms due to their vibrant and quirky illustrations coupled with accessible and interesting facts. This large-sized informative compendium is the kind of non-fiction that children like to come back to again and again to pore over its pages.

Each double-page spread dives into a different sea-themed question, such as 'Are jellyfish made of jelly?' or 'Why do crabs run sideways?'. There is never too much text on each page, but what you find is accessible chunks of information cleverly interspersed into each ocean scene. The illustrations are stunning, making up wonderful spreads that serve as a treasure trove of visual delights for young eyes, with text and images working together to build an understanding of underwater habitats and the diversity of life they hold.

I have wanted to read The Big Book of the Blue for quite some time and was so pleased to finally get hold of it. This is fantastic information text about the ocean environment and various different animal families and species living in it, with some of the most amazing facts about they ways their bodies work and how they live their lives. So much research has gone into this book and there is such depth to the facts inside, which are regularly astounding.
I felt that Zommer got the tone just right in this book. Each double page spread has a generous amount of information without overwhelming the reader with heavy text, and follows a format of intriguing questions, fun punny subtitles and general facts. This makes each page both a fascinating and light read, which is just the right balance for me. Perfect for visiting a page at random and then returning at a later time. Equal to the excellent text are Zommer’s immersive illustrations, which are so quirky and fun. Children would undoubtedly love and treasure this book.

Where to start? This book is by far my favourite of all the 2019 UKLA 3-6 long list. I can see myself using this book in the classroom at every chance I get, art, science, literacy, maths, music, geography and even more. The interactive pages make it a perfect book the the age range of 3-6. However, don't shy away from presenting this book to any age group in the primary school as it is just as engaging and informative for older children.

The illustrations by Zommer are intriguing and lend itself well for involving art and design in the classroom. In my experience, children have responded well to the artwork and have been eager to create their own fact file pages for their own favourite animals. I love the fact that the book includes elements of poetry with sentences involving onomatopoeia and alliteration! Since finding out that there are more books in this series, I cannot wait to get my hands on them!

This book is a must have in any primary classroom! It is so informative on a range of sea creatures, including sharks, but is also not overwhelming. Each double spread covers a different sea creature. The book is clearly presented with beautiful illustrations; the author Yuval Zommer also created the lovely and incredibly detailed pictures! I trust the information presented in this book as it was written in collaboration with sea life expert, Barbara Taylor.

The pages vary in orientation which adds to the awe I felt as a reader, but each double page is well laid out for any child from early years and older to access in some way. Zoomer also made use of the opportunity to educate children about the threat to these creatures and our oceans in the concluding few pages. Emboldening key words and having "expert phrases" for the more difficult vocabulary makes this book even more accessible.

I am an adult who loves reading nonfiction children’s picture books. I first read Zommer’s Big Book of Birds a year or 2 ago, which I highly recommend as well. This book is another fun and interesting read. I learned all sorts of fun facts about sea creatures and I just adore his whimsical illustrations. The imagery is like Eric Carle 2.0. It has a hand painted paper collage appearance perhaps with some drawn and digital enhancements and always a bunch of his signature quirky creatures with 2 eyes on one side of their head. Most people could read this in one sitting, but I took my time savoring the plethora of eye candy and rereading the most interesting trivia. There is a “Where’s Waldo” style sardine search game embedded in the book which was fun and fortunately not as challenging as a Waldo search.

"El gran libro del mar" es, tal y como su nombre lo indica, un gran libro con información detallada y al mismo tiempo precisa. Da detalles relevantes y simples, fáciles de comprender, para que cualquiera que lea el libro sea capaz de sostener información sobre las diversas especies que esta leyendo. Además, sus ilustraciones no solo acompañan estos breves textos, sino que lo hace llamativo y agradable a la vista.

Me parece un libro perfecto para despertar la curiosidad en los mas pequeños, ya que a pesar de contener datos interesantes y variados, aun les queda mucho por descubrir tras estas especies expuestas. Además es capaz de despertar el entusiasmo al ver las imágenes que este contiene, ya que sus tonos azules llenos de fauna marina, vuelve este libro algo llamativo e interesante.

I love that these are a cohesive series. This one had a few missed opportunities and odd design choices. There is text along the side that seems like it’s meant to be a poem or something, but then it isn’t. That text is also in all caps which makes it hard to read. It made sense to me as a way for a librarian to read just that and not all the facts so this could be a story time book too, but it was done poorly. I really like the concept of that though, and I’d love to see it done well. There is a plastic bag on the dolphin page and then plastic in the ocean is a couple more spreads away. It would have been the perfect segue and it was disordered. So, felt like a rush job, but done is better than perfect and it fully deserves the three stars.

This is a fabulous non-fiction picture book about all the weird and wonderful inhabitants of the sea! There’s lots of different creatures mentioned on large double spread pages. Each page is filled with awesome illustrations with a range of facts and questions.

I thought this was a lovely book, I particular enjoyed reading about sea creatures I have seen in real life - anything sea related seems more exciting as it’s far less explored and I for one don’t spend much time on the ocean so seeing and hear familiar creatures and their names is exciting. I think children would feel the same! I think this would be good to use in KS1 and KS2 for exploring the underwater world.

This book is a visual delight as it is filled with the most amazing illustrations, it’s perfect for children who are curious about the seas. Children can explore the oceans and the amazing animals that call them home. Fun and interesting facts are scattered amongst the illustrations. They are short and snappy, making the book an easy read. Having this book in classrooms is a great opportunity to have to engage children's learning. The illustrations are so beautifully stunning they will draw children straight to them.
