1 6 y separately published work icon When Elephants Lived in the Sea Jane Godwin , Vincent Agostino (illustrator), South Melbourne : Lothian , 2006 Z1289978 2006 single work picture book children's 'How and why did elephants learn to swim? Could it be that they were once marine creatures? This genuinely unique and fascinating book uses both print and full colour illustration to trace the evolution of the elephant from its prehistoric marine beginnings to the water-loving-land animal we know today. The story line is simple but poetic while the illustrations are scientifically informative yet highly imaginative. A beautiful book to read aloud to children or explore visually.' (Google Books)
