Synopsis

Snails and sea slugs use Sea Slime. But, did you know that coral and clownfish need slime too? Marine scientist Ellen Prager takes us deep into the sea to introduce us to fascinating and bizarre animals that use slime to capture their food, protect themselves from harm, or even move from place to place in their underwater environment.

About this title

Review:

Prager exudes basic facts about a gallery of marine creatures. These include jellyfish (-Its whole body is see-through SLIME-), slugs, coral, vampire squid and the ever-popular hagfish--which responds to danger with -undersea goo! Lots of goo! - Kirkus Reviews

The repeated use of the word -slime- (always seen in a bold, dripping font) and the inclusion of well-known sea dwellers, such as dolphins, sharks, jellyfish, and clownfish, will engage young readers - School Library Journal

Sea Slime is an exciting educational marine book about sea slime for children in grades K-3. - Midwest Book Review
