Abstract
Sylvia Earle has spent more than seven thousand hours underwater and has dedicated her life to studying the ocean. When she was a little girl she was given ample opportunities to study and explore her surroundings. She called her curiosity “investigations” and was determined from a young age to explore the ocean. She walked on the ocean floor deeper than anyone has ever walked, helped design underwater equipment, and enthusiastically observed ocean life. Sylvia Earle has become an advocate for protecting the sea. This picture book biography is about an amazing woman who changed the world.
