Somebody Swallowed Stanley cover

This engaging picture book tells the story of Stanley, a plastic bag mistaken for a jellyfish, highlighting the dangers of ocean pollution.

In Somebody Swallowed Stanley, readers are introduced to Stanley, a unique jellyfish with a twist. Unlike traditional jellyfish with their long, flowing tentacles, Stanley sports two handles and striking stripes. This charming character is not your typical marine creature; he is, in fact, a plastic bag that has found its way into the ocean. The story unfolds as various sea animals mistake Stanley for a tasty treat, highlighting the dangers of plastic pollution in our oceans.

Written by environmental expert Sarah Roberts, this beautifully illustrated picture book conveys a powerful message about the impact of plastic waste on marine life. As children follow Stanley's journey, they are encouraged to think critically about the consequences of littering and the importance of keeping our oceans clean. The rhythmic and repetitive text makes it an engaging read-aloud experience, perfect for young audiences.

Somebody Swallowed Stanley serves as an excellent resource for parents and educators alike. It not only entertains but also educates children about environmental issues, making it a fitting gift for any young eco-warrior. With praise from various literary sources, this book is a wonderful tool for sparking discussions about plastic pollution and fostering a love for nature in the next generation.
