    About this ebook

    Enter the weird and wonderful world of ocean beasts. Our animal experts have found 40 of the planet's most bizarre species and ranked them in order of their oddness! With jaw-dropping facts and amazing photos, we reveal each sea creature's seriously strange characteristics and the unusual ways they hunt, eat or defend themselves.

    More than 70% of our planet is covered in water and our oceans contain millions of living things. Inside World's Strangest Ocean Beasts, kids will discover the biggest creature the world's ever known, worms that look like Christmas trees, ferocious predators and masters of disguise. And with our 'strange-o-meter', they can compare each animal based on its appearance, weird abilities, rarity and strangeness!

    • Trumpetfish
    • Sea cucumber
    • Ocean sunfish
