"Fans of the series that began with CeCe Loves Science will enjoy this beach-themed exploration. . . . The brightly colored images rival those of Dreamworks or Disney in cuteness and charm while also providing information. . . . A nifty way to help young learners see the beach through the lens of science." - Kirkus Reviews
