Discover the world beneath the waves with this illustrated treasury of folklore from the ocean deeps. Do you know the story of the ghost ship Mary Celeste? Or the myths behind seaquakes and tsunamis? Have you heard of Nanaue, the Hawaiian King of the Sharks? For millennia, humans have lived on and around the sea, relying on it for food, trade and exploration. The myths, folktales and lore that have washed up from that relationship are as mysterious as they are varied - here, they're set down in a diverse and engaging format for readers 6-12 years old. 'Lore of the Deep' takes readers out to sea and onto the tides of time to discover the myriad answers to our most ancient questions.
