Across vast oceans, from the shimmering surface down to the deep dark depths, some of the world’s most amazing animals are making incredible journeys. From whales swimming thousands of miles in search of warmer waters, to sea turtles crossing oceans to return to the same beaches where they hatched, to spiny lobsters marching in single lines across the ocean floor, the oceans are alive with epic journeys of survival, endurance and wonder.

In the first title in an illustrated non-fiction series about animal migration, children will learn about why and how these ocean animals migrate, as well as the dangers they face, and how climate change has an impact on these animals’ journeys, ending on what each person can do to tell and a handy glossary.

In the Epic Journeys series, travel through our oceans, skies and across the land to discover the incredible journeys of animals around the world. Written and illustrated by Becca Hall who creates beautiful and immersive scenes of the animal world for readers to explore alongside easy to understand text combined in the perfect way for visual learning. ‘Land Roamers’ is the second title in a series of three. The first title was ‘Ocean Voyagers’, about ocean animal’s migration and ‘Sky Soarers’, about flying animals’ migration.
