Join the delights of Lucy and George as they play, learn, and experience new adventures during the holidays. Hidden behind a secret wallpapered door, imagine their curiosity with an attic full of theatre props and costumes in the old family home, by the sea, in England. A large old mirror is their portal to the adventures and this book takes the children through to the sea. They meet Letty the shrimp who shows them around and introduces them to blue crab, red snapper, lantern fish, octopus, and other fish to discover about sustainable fishing, ghost gear, ecosystems, and plastic waste. Together they look at today's problems and Letty the Shrimp suggests what the children and their families can do to help.
A colourful children's picture book, for around ages 5-8 years, inspired by the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goal (SDGs) 14 "Life under Water". With new vocabulary to learn, questions to discuss, and a space to draw a solution. The book aims to initiate conversations between adults and children, discuss the needs of SDG14, and learn what each person can do about it.
Primary schools, teachers, parents, grandparents, and carers are highly recommended to use this book as a basis for discussion and teaching about sea life and how to look after it.
