Book Description: Adventurous friends Lulu and Malek make fantastic discoveries, take care of our planet, and meet new friends as they explore the wonders of the world under the sea. With vibrant illustrations and endearing characters, this fun-to-read rhyming book is sure to be a children’s favorite that they will want to read over and over again! Add this fun-filled and inspiring book to your home or class library! It will be enjoyed by children who love adventure, a good laugh, and want to learn more about the sea and conservation.
My Thoughts: Lulu and Malek, a young lion and giraffe, head out on an adventure at sea helping marine creatures and making new friends along the way. In this wholly-unique adventure, the two friends learn about our underwater world and the dangers of pollution while experiencing life in the ocean. The unexpected juxtaposition of African mammals under water create fun illustrations and imaginative situations — like catching a ride from a pelican! The wonderfully warm illustrations are a pleasure to peruse as children follow along and learn something new about the seas.

This adorable picture book is well-suited for younger children and could be used in classrooms, libraries and homeschools to spark conversations about protecting our oceans.

I recently launched an online retail store (www.yachtieinspired.com) that offers conservation and yachtie inspired designs through my Sea Our Love and Silent Whispers Collections.
