Oceans of the world (Heinemann Library)

What is a glacier? Who has lived along the Arctic coast for 4,000 years? When did explorers first reach the North Pole?

This book introduces children to the Southern Ocean, looking at how it is different from the other oceans, its resources, and why people visit. The ocean floor is explored using key geography terms. Children are encouraged to use geographical skills to locate information by reading maps and interpreting simple keys. This series complements the Introducing Continents series.
