BOOKS ABOUT/ THE MARINE ENVIIIONMENT FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

Project COAST has compiled the following reeding list of books related to mnrine and coastal environments for young people age thirteen and older. &Never, people younger than thirteen will find madY of these books interisting and readable.

We suggest you also refer to the first section of this book, the Children's Section, for additional listings since teeny books listed there have a wide interest and reading range. We have avoided listing the sawtitle id both places, although both age groups would be interested in reading many of the books.

Only a few,of the books in this section havn,annotatione, but,as resources permit Project COAST hopes to continuo to annotate these books. -The annotations are those of Project COAST in most cases. Credit is given for other annotations uoed, where that information was available. it is4our aim to include eignificant books in the area of marine and coastal environments whether they are factual, fictional or philosophical.

Project COAST uses a multi-disciplinary approach to marine education: Learning about one subject often contributes to knowledge about another. For example, you may find individual books on this list which relate to both science and literature, history and marine science, nutrition and marine biology, ecology and oceanography, Language arts and pollution, or geography and zoology. Teachers ofvaxsubjeSt will be able to find pertinent and useful books on this list to include in their own readins lists. The marine environment can be related to all aspects of learning.

Our goal is to arouse students to au awareness of the world around them, to prol'ide them with some knowledge of their relationship to the world, and to increase their feelings of responsibility toward their environment.

The Subject Guide to Books in Print, found in most libraries, is our chief source for this list. We have selected only those books we deemed most relevant. Other useful SOUrces of book listingt include the following:
