About this book
My undersea world is such fun to explore. It has cool salt-doh islands and sand on the shore.
A shiny silk scarf makes the shimmering waves. And painted egg boxes form undersea caves. There are bottle top boats bobbing out on the tide and pipe-cleaner reefs where my paper fish hide.
My small world is waiting, so come take my hand, I’ll show you who lives in my undersea land.
Join two young explorers as they journey through the oceans to meet all the wildlife that live beneath the waves.
The clever illustrations from award-winning Harry Woodgate, beautifully blend home-made scenery with imagined and “real” sea life, making this book is a great way to inspire creative small-world play.
With a handy How To guide full of ideas, children, schools and families will be inspired to create their own small worlds - the perfect place to invent, explore and stimulate curiosity about the time of the dinosaurs!
A brilliant second book in this exciting new series, perfect for little readers at home, school and preschool.

Praise for My Small World: Dinosaurs
“Totally love this new series! Such a brilliant way to encourage imagination and creativity in young children! ”
“Small world play is an integral part of children’s early years, supporting imagination, creativity, social skills and language development.
This book is a fantastic concept and is perfect for provision areas. I can see this series becoming a huge hit in Early Years.”
“The jaunty text is great fun to read aloud...This makes STEM learning super-fun – useful in nurseries and Reception classes alike.”
“Caryl’s writing is perfectly pitched to get kids creating small worlds of their own, and together I think we’ve made something really special!”
“It’s not just a picture book, it’s fuel for a child’s imagination and encouragement to build stories of their own. I love it.”
“This fun and engaging book playfully introduces you to a plethora of dinosaurs and weaves in facts about them! - All written in rhyme! It’s a fab combination of fiction and non-fiction.”
“And what a brilliant pairing of talent this is. Caryl writes such engaging non-fiction for KS1. She cleverly wraps info into a story with characters that children can identify with. And Harry is a formidable new illustration talent who is deservedly garnering prestigious awards for their richly detailed and expressive work.”
