Response: This book was very cool to read. It had a lot of interesting and fun facts. I have always loved seahorses and I never realized that the men were the ones who had the pouches. This would be a great book for children to read if they are really interested in the ocean. The pictures were not as exciting as I hoped they would be, but the facts made up for that.
