Dr. Ick is excited to introduce the reader to “…all things that might make other people say, “Ick!” ‘ (4) This time Dr. Ick is exploring sea creatures. Along the way Dr. Ick gives a tiny bit of information about “five regions: the Pacific, Atlantic, Indian, Arctic, and Southern Oceans.”(7) , its terrain, and depths.

Dr. Ick tells a little about the oarfish, blobfish, the red-lipped batfish, frogfish, leafy sea dragon, and mimic octopus.

“There are so many more species waiting to be discovered in our ocean!” (22)

Much of the book is illustrated in cartoon characters with eight inserted photos of the actual sea creatures giving this book more of a whimsical presentation of a factual one.
