Review:

Have you ever wished you could snorkel with a shark? What if you could read about what it’s like to brush against a stinging fire coral? Pacifico, an avid ocean explorer, wants you to join him on his adventures to some of the most magnificent coral reefs in the world. Earn your Reef Explorers Club patch as you read Pacifico’s letters and collect the stunning photos he sends the club about his encounters with the incredible wildlife found swimming amongst the corals.

This book is a suggested read-aloud for The Good and the Beautiful Marine Biology Science Unit Study.
