Double Helix has partnered with Cosmos Magazine to publish a free ebook that takes kids aged 8 to 12 on a dive into the science of our oceans.

The ebook includes stories about turtles, wonky holes and undersea cables, as well as experiments to do at home.
The ebook is free to view or download as a PDF thanks to Cosmos Magazine’s Ultramarine project, a partnership with the Mindaroo Foundation.
