Genre: Nonfiction - Informational

This book is about waves and how to surf on them. It also shows dolphins riding waves. It talks about the connection between the sun and the moon and how their gravitational pulls are what create waves. It then talks about tidal waves and how high tide brings in big waves. The book explains the connection between wind and the waves. It shows the properties of waves. The book says a lot about tsunamis and places they have happened and how they have happened.

This book gives more than enough information on waves. It explains everything about them from what the crest of wave is to how tsunamis happen. It gives properties and facts all about waves in the ocean and how they affect the way we live and what they mean to us. It is a great book for younger children to be able to learn information in a way that makes it more interesting than just a textbook or worksheet.
