    About this ebook

    A coral reef has turned white... can the Octonauts help it regain its color? Enjoy the original books that launched the animated TV show worldwide!

    The Octonauts are a crew of adorable animals who explore the oceans in search of adventure and fun! From their undersea base called "the Octopod," the Octonauts explore a vibrant world full of thrills, chills, and gills. The crew of eight talented critters, which include Captain Barnacles, Kwazii Kitten, Peso Penguin, and Professor Inkling, is always ready to embark on a new exciting voyage.

    The Octonauts travel to a large reef city where they discover this bustling destination has turned into a ghost town! The once colorful coral has turned an eerie white and homes lay empty. So the crew visit different reef 'neighborhoods' from mangrove forests to seagrass meadows, searching for clues. Can they solve the mystery of the great ghost reef? Find out!

    Combining the instant appeal of Hello Kitty with the intrepid spirit of Jacques Cousteau, the Octonauts will entertain and delight children, while adults will appreciate the stylish design and subversive humor. Lushly layered and brightly colored illustrations create a teeming undersea universe that will dazzle readers’ eyes, inspire their imaginations, and tickle their funny bones.

    Called “charming and beautifully-designed” by comics scholar Scott McCloud, Meomi’s winsome cast of characters have attracted an international audience, from kids, parents, and teachers to digital artists and fashion designers. What is their next mission? Stay tuned for the next Octonauts adventure to find out! Immedium’s original four books inspired the popular animated television series that is broadcast on Disney Junior and Netflix and in more than 100 countries around the globe.

    "I've had the pleasure of reviewing all of the books in Meomi's wonderful 'Octonauts' series, which are published by Immedium. I have to say, they just keep getting better and better, and the newest, The Octonauts & the Great Ghost Reef is probably my favorite yet. Not only are the illustrations so cute I want to hang them on my walls, but the story is great, and it's educational... Every page is filled with the cutest illustrations, featuring Meomi's signature characters!"

      If you read one Octonauts book, read this one - the point is more clear and more valuable (but it's still just plain cute).
    • 4/5
      In this Octonaut adventure, the intrepid crew are heading for a vacation, but find another adventure awaiting them instead. The Great Reef City does not live up to its reputation; the inhabitants are all missing, and the city is bleached white. Captain Barnacles takes the team out to explore, but as they search for clues in the city, ghostly noises surround them. The illustrations show cute, translucent creatures floating around them, just out of sight. Eventually, they find the last resident of Great Reef City, an old turtle named Mr. Slowstache. He tells them that when he first moved to the city, it was a vibrant and colorful place, but as more animals moved in and more buildings went up, the coral beneath the city began to turn white and brittle. Eventually, everyone returned to their old homes and left Great Reef City abandoned.The Octonauts offer to help Mr. Slowstache move his possession to a new home. They search several promising locations, such as sandy dunes at the beach, a mangrove forest, and seagrass meadows. Sadly, Mr. Slowstache isn't satisfied with any of his options. He realizes that his reef was a truly special place. If they can't find him a new home, the Octonauts will just need to fix the one he wants. Lucky for them, Shellington has solved the mystery. The coral is living, and all the buildings and pollution are killing it. And the ghosts aren't ghosts at all, but algae that are starving without their coral, and thus look pale and spooky.The gang work on cleaning up the Great Reef City, and with the help of other sea creatures the job is soon done. Soon, the coral is bursting with color and beauty, the city has reverted to its natural look without all the buildings and streets, and everyone is happy. The story blends the adorable and slightly absurd, as do previous Octonaut books I have read.
