Learn moreSecrets of the Ocean features sound design and special effects to enhance your listening enjoyment. Listen out for the calls of orcas and the calming ocean music!
A collection of 5-minute bedtime stories about the wildlife found in seas and oceans around the world.
Every ocean contains a thousand secrets…
In this charming anthology of children’s stories by Alicia Klepeis listeners will be guided under the waves to meet the amazing animals that live there. In one story an orca grandmother teaches younger members of the pod how to find the best fish, while another looks at a mimic octopus as it changes appearance to disguise itself from different predators. Kids will be thrilled by the tale of an otter and her cub playing in a kelp forest, and marvel at a jellyfish that looks like a fried egg!
Other stories feature swimming iguanas, diving penguins, deep-sea anglerfish, albatrosses in love, leaping dolphins, sleepy dugongs, majestic whales, hungry sea turtles, ancient sharks, and marching crabs!
Each story in Secrets of the Ocean is based on the real biology and behavior of these amazing wild animals, and at the end of each tale listeners will find out more about the science that inspired the story. So as they drift off to sleep, they will know a little bit more about the world around them.
A Macmillan Audio production from Neon Squid.
Alicia Klepeis loves to research fun and out-of-the-ordinary topics that bring the world to young readers—from amazing animals to extreme environments. Alicia began her career at the National Geographic Society. She is the author of more than 200 children’s books, including Go Wild! Frogs; Gutsy Girls Go For Science: Astronauts; Polar Bears & Penguins: A Pretty Cool Introduction to the Arctic and Antarctic; and Secrets of the Forest: 15 Bedtime Stories Inspired By Nature. A former middle school teacher, Alicia loves doing school visits. She lives with her family in upstate New York.
Neon Squid creates beautiful nonfiction books for inquisitive kids (and kids at heart). We believe the most amazing stories are real ones, so our books are for children who want to decipher ancient scrolls, orbit distant stars, and dive into the deepest oceans. Our books are a labor of love—written by experts, illustrated by the best artists around, and produced using the finest materials, including sustainably sourced paper. We hope that by reading them kids are encouraged to further explore the world around them.
