Review:
In a fun and colorful way, Dombeck conveys the message that ecological conservation can be as simple as helping the oysters. Two oysters, named Chester and Meredith, see that the Chesapeake Bay is in trouble and decide to clean the water. The only way the underwater grasses (submerged aquatic vegetation) will get enough light to grow is if the water is clear enough. The grasses are needed for hiding places and as food. Chester and Meredith enlist the help of all the oysters in the Bay. The illustrations are realistic and accurate as well as vibrant. He depicts numerous kinds of fish, birds, and animals. As the oysters clean the water, young children learn a lot about ecosystems and the Bay. --childishnonsense.wordpress.com
