Ramirez, Tatiana: - My love for the ocean grew as I advanced my education at the University of South Florida St. Petersburg and when I became a high school Marine Science teacher. Seeing the joy in my students' eyes when I taught them about the wonders of the deep sea fueled my passion to create a children's book. I imagined the spark in kids' eyes when they see a Giant squid or an Angler fish, and that is the joy I felt when I first saw them too. There is so much left to explore and find in the ocean. The journey starts with you.
