Shipwreck Reefs (Imagine This!)
Reading Level: 2nd − 3rd Grade
Series: Imagine This!
When ships sink to the ocean floor, the ocean transforms them into artificial reefs. This new life begins with the growth of coral polyps and the arrival of small plankton, followed by schools of fish and hungry predators, until the ship is home to hundreds of sea creatures. It's a magical transformation from relic to reef that helps bring life back to struggling ocean ecosystems.
