Leafy Sea Dragons

Leafy sea dragons may look like a plant and swim like a sea horse, but they aren't a plant or a sea horse (or a dragon). Pictures of these unique beautiful creatures will captivate the reader as they learn about where leafy sea dragons live, how they reproduce, what they eat, how they use camouflage, and how to protect their habitat.

This beautifully written book includes pictures of leafy sea dragons, maps, and information on the Great Barrier Reef.
