BC Books Online was created for anyone interested in BC-published books, and with librarians especially in mind. We'd like to make it easy for library staff to learn about books from BC publishers - both new releases and backlist titles - so you can inform your patrons and keep your collections up to date.
Our site features print books and ebooks - both new releases and backlist titles - all of which are available to order through regular trade channels. Browse our subject categories to find books of interest or create and export lists by category to cross-reference with your library's current collection.
A quick tip: When reviewing the "Browse by Category" listings, please note that these are based on standardized BISAC Subject Codes supplied by the books' publishers. You will find additional selections, grouped by theme or region, in our "BC Reading Lists."
A fun way to learn about those sea creatures swimming in the tidal pools.The stories in this book are fun. They are delightful to read or to listen to. Any child from the age of five to ten years, or for that matter anyone who is young in heart, will enjoy them. But fun and enjoyment is only part of the value of this book. The book is filled with interesting facts about sea creatures. It was written with the hope that reading it would teach children to appreciate them for their unique qualities and to respect the small pools in which they live. After reading this book a trip to the beach will be doubly interesting and meaningful to young readers.
