‘An unnamed narrator has a cheery conversation in the darkest depths of the sea in this humorous tale that sheds some light on the midnight zone. The brightly coloured text and a parade of curious creatures stand out against dark backdrops as readers are introduced to the mysterious Fergus, a deep-sea creature who’s afraid of the light. The narrator provides primers on the creatures encountered, while a “Did you know?” section at the end expands on the science of the deep sea.’
