Baldwin. This is the Sea that Feeds Us

This is the Sea that Feeds Us is a children's book by Robert Baldwin, with art by Don Dyen, published in 1998. It is available at the Internet Archive.

Here is a YouTube read-along:

The story starts with the sea that feeds us, then the sun, then plankton making food from the light of the sun. The style is rhyming couplets, all long lines after we move on from the sun:

A nice feature of the book are informational notes next to the illustrations, set off from the story by using a different typeface, as you can see above.

Then comes a girl, then some wind which thrilled the girl, with her mother teaching her to fish on the shore, using a shrimp as bait, and the story becomes not so much a chain tale, as a story in verse, as you can see here:

Then at the very end, it returns to the food chain theme:

There is then some information at the end about sea ecology and how it provides food.

It's a nice book, but the chain tale dimension of it is not very strong; hence the 2-star rating.
