Started with L, she finished on her own.

Once again, begins from a white settler colonialist perspective, with Captain Cook "discovering" (i.e. crashing into and getting stuck on) the Great Barrier Reef.

Timeline, bibliography, map.

This well-researched children’s book gives a lot of information about the Great Barrier Reef in Australia. Not only does it tell how the reefs are formed, but it also tells about the corals and algae that create it. This book also tells a lot about the history of the Great Barrier Reef, and about that part of Australia. It concludes by describing the dangers that that great wonder is in and the movements that have been created through the years, to save it. This is a wonderful book that is written specifically for children. The pencil sketches throughout are well-done. ( )
