About this title

Synopsis

Six sea creatures face off against the Death-O-Meter to determine which will be crowned the deadliest of them all.

Meet the deadliest sea creatures on Earth.

Who’s the true danger of the sea? Is it the elegant box jellyfish? The fearsome great white shark? The elusive blue-ringed octopus? Or someone else?

The host of this stiff competition, Dr. Eleanor Spicer Rice, teaches the rules for sea creature interactions (Do not touch! Do not bother!) and introduces the contestants.

This tale of teeth, tentacles, and toxins invites readers into the world of deadly sea creatures: where they live, what they eat―and what could happen if you ever come into contact with one. It also encourages readers to appreciate them, showing why they’re important to the places they live―and why we should protect them. With humor, accessible science, and a colorful graphic format by best-selling artist Max Temescu, The Deadliest: Sea Creature shows that even the deadliest things in nature may not be as scary as we think.
