DESCRIPTION
"I've had the pleasure of reviewing all of the books in Meomi's wonderful 'Octonauts' series, which are published by Immedium. I have to say, they just keep getting better and better, and the newest, The Octonauts & the Great Ghost Reef is probably my favorite yet." - Tokyo Bunnie. "The illustrations are delightful and a host of reef dwellers are beautifully presented, as other reef neighbourhoods are also explored. Despite this being designated a picture book for children 4-8, The Octonauts & the Great Ghost Reef is another fine example of top quality illustration that makes a fine book for anyone of any age to pore over." - ArtMoCo. By Meomi. $15.95, hardcover, 36 Pages, ISBN: 978-1-59702-019-0, 11 x 8, www.immedium.com/products/octonautsggr.html

“The Octonauts... has already attracted a worldwide audience.
The illustrations are colorful and super cute, and the stories
are full of innocent fun.” — The Children’s Book Review

The characters display characteristics to which young children can relate—concern for the feelings of others, seeing the value
in simple pleasures, using technology, and appreciating one’s friends.”
— CM magazine
“Each page is a treat for any color lover as the book is full of color cuteness of soft yet vibrant palettes, and the wonderful compositions and styling
we’ve come to expect from the Meomi team’s illustrations.”
