"I do love you, but now you are ready to be on your own"
This book can be used to examine difference in species compared to our human experience. It also shows healthy father-child relationships.

This book had many physical design choices that made it a fun read. For example, it had clear pages with art, partially hiding pages for a "reveal". This book shows how male fish can carry their babies. Fun illustrations, stylizations, and colors.
I don‘t think I would use this book in the classroom. It would be good for a fun book but I‘m not seeing a lesson connected to it
Loved this book. I really liked the iridescent flaps within the book that hid some of the fish
Took my sweet nephew to the library today, and we found several fun new books to read, including this great book from Eric Carle about fish dads. He loves Eric Carle books and immediately recognized the artwork! @sebrittainclark
Mister Seahorse by Eric Carle is a great read aloud for the younger grades. The illustrations alone are so engaging the children will love it! This book talks about the only male to carry eggs in a pouch which is a seahorse! Mister Seahorse meets more dad fish along the way and discusses what they do with the eggs. http://www.makinglearningfun.com/OceanMrSeahorsePrintables.htm has great activities to go along with the story.

A few years ago my dear friend gifted me this Eric Carle book with his autograph. One of my favorite signed books.

I didn't have anything already in mind for today's #seaofbooks prompt, so I did a web search. This gorgeous image was one of the first to come up and it really caught my eye. So much beauty, compliments of miyumon.deviantart.
Beautiful watercolor illustrations showing how the male of various underwater species help tend to eggs and babies. Set alongside moby dick - a long take about a whale that I finally read last year. #somethingforsept #septphotochallenge #setbythesea
Happy Birthday to Eric Carle, beloved author of millions worldwide (our hot, dusty corner included)! Mister Seahorse is my daughter's favorite so far because "the daddies take care of the babies too"! Leave it to my toddler to turn a bedtime story into a treatise on equality and feminism!
