Deep Below is a magical tale of unusual friendships and adventure. Deep in the darkest place in the sea, a volcano erupts. This sudden incident forces a group of strange and wonderful deep-sea creatures to set off on a journey of discovery. Along the way they forge unusual friendships, discover a world they never knew existed, and meet challenges they could not have possibly expected as they follow a giant sperm whale in search of a new home. This is a rhyming tale of undersea adventure and discovery like no other. Follow the funny and heart-warming story of the creatures who live in the midnight zone, a largely uncharted world deep in the sea which is home to some of the planet’s most extraordinary creatures.
