The collection uses lyrical poetry to personify the ocean, from the 'Gull's View' to the 'Old Man Lobster,' turning a science lesson into a sensory experience. Through gentle metaphors and vibrant watercolors, the book explores themes of curiosity, interconnectedness, and the hidden beauty of the natural world.
