They like to hide alone, they change color to blend in with their surroundings, and they're able to hold very still. But another reason seahorses are so hard to see is that humans have taken so many from the ocean, for trinkets, teas, and tonics. What's more, the animals' habitats--seagrass meadows, coral reefs, and mangroves--are vulnerable to pollution, fishing, and other human activities, as well as the ongoing effects of climate change. With a clear text and brilliantly colorful artwork, this window into the world of an enchanting creature includes engaging final notes about climate change and seahorses--and how we can come to their aid.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNicola Davies\u003c\/b\u003e is a zoologist and award-winning author whose many books for children include \u003ci\u003eEmperor of the Ice\u003c\/i\u003e, illustrated by Catherine Rayner; \u003ci\u003eTiny Creatures: The World of Microbes\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eGrow: Secrets of Our DNA\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eMany: The Diversity of Life on Earth\u003c\/i\u003e, all illustrated by Emily Sutton; and \u003ci\u003eBat Loves the Night\u003c\/i\u003e, illustrated by Sarah Fox-Davies, as well as other Read and Wonder titles.
