Coral reefs are homes to some of the most biologically diverse areas of the world, and they are the spawning place of a vast number of marine creatures. They prevent damage to coastlines and provide nitrogen for many marine food chains. Without brains, corals, the builders of coral reefs, create these lush environments. An entertaining narrative and beautiful full-color images help readers explore the life cycle and interesting features of these invertebrates. |
