An excellent elementary nonfiction read about giant squids, with gorgeous foldout spreads and fascinating details about the squids and their creepy bodies.

I had no idea there was so much we didn’t know about giant squids! What a captivating book with beautiful/terrifying illustrations.

NO HAY PALABRAS PARA DESCRIBIR LA HERMOSURA DE UN CEFALOPODO.

Se imaginan ver a un calamar gigante frente a frente?

Debe ser como ver a dios o algo.

Vaguely terrifying but also awesome. I can see this one being a big hit with story times and class visits. Complete with a big foldout for the squid's big moment too.

I love the way the text is presented as a poem, but what I love most about it book are the illustrations. There are no frames around the pages, so you feel as if you are really a part of the story.

Me encanta que con un lenguaje sencillo mantiene una atmósfera misteriosa. Con pocas palabras logra describir y causar curiosidad por igual, captando la sensación de asombro que causan el mar y sus criaturas.
