These Seas Count!

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Sarah Snow. Mr. Tate's class joins Captain Ned for clean-up day at Sunnyside Beach. After Captain Ned urges the kids to listen to the sea, the ocean offers a gratuitous counting lesson. The characters then highlight pollution sources, collect ten large bags of trash, and take a boat ride. The book's diffuse focus is unfortunate; the digital collage illustrations help keep reader interest. Websites. Bib.
