    Hmmmm…I’m wondering how this man got his advanced degree, and who let this book series get published.

    In one book (Daddy and I Explore the Coast, or something), it shows him plucking live corals (!!!!!!!) from a tidepool — and we don’t even have any corals in Bermuda which live in tidepools.

    Daddy and I need to explore reality and explore the eonvironmental protection laws.
