This is our Blue Planet: a beautiful blue marble suspended in a sea of stars.
Unlike billions of other worlds in the Milky Way, 71 per cent of our Blue Planet is covered by ocean. It's home to the greatest diversity of life on Earth but is our least explored habitat; we've better maps of Mars than of the ocean floor.
With so much more to discover, take a deep breath . . . and dive into a wondrous world beneath the waves.
Explore coral reefs that shimmer in a kaleidoscope of colours.
Venture to the bottom of the ocean where creatures beyond your wildest imagination live in the dark.
Chase sea otters through kelp forest seas, and glide the open ocean with humpback whales.
Discover all there is to love about our Blue Planet, the stories of its inhabitants, and realise how you can help protect this wilderness beneath the waves.
In collaboration with BBC Earth, this illustrated non-fiction book will capture the wonder, beauty, and emotion of the iconic BBC Blue Planet II TV series.
For the novice, there could be no better initiation - For students of Hemingway, here is a well-balanced view
—— Daily ExpressHe can perform prodigies. He can fascinate us by pure evocation, by the tensity of the situation
—— Times Literary SupplementHemingway's style, at its best, is a superb vehicle for revealing tenderness of feeling beneath descriptions of brutality
—— The Guardian"It's a glowing journey through the rainbow. Who knew the secret of why some eyes are blue, and that it's actually an optical illusion! Lavishly illustrated, this book shows us there's so much to find out about our colourful world and how we see it."
—— Mini GreyFor lovers of non-fiction, Dominic Sandbrook's narrative series has been a boon ... This volume is inevitably moving, and an illuminating chronicle of the waste of war.
—— The Times Children's Books of the YearStolen History is a truly remarkable achievement: an historically accurate, diligently researched and nuanced account of the British Empire that is also gripping for younger readers. I know of no other writer who could have accomplished such a feat.
—— Professor Alan Lester FRHistS, Professor of Historical Geography and Professor of History, La Trobe UniversitySanghera brilliantly demonstrates that history doesn't have to be dumbed down to be made accessible, nor does it need to be sensationalized to seem relevant. Written with integrity and a deep commitment to reveal how the past has shaped our present, the book will make young readers engage with history as more than just entertainment and it will encourage them to ask new questions.
—— Kim A. Wagner, Professor of Global and Imperial History, School of History Queen Mary, University of London
