H1 Bloom with Julia Seal

Age: 3+

Dive into the ocean with author and illustrator Julia Seal. Join Luna and her mischievous jellyfish friends in this fun interactive story telling session. Once the ocean was full of friends. But lately, Luna has noticed things are changing – friends are disappearing! When she sets out to find them, she discovers that everyone has a part to play in protecting the ocean. Listen to Julia read her latest book and then create your own recycled jellyfish to take home.

Julia Seal knew from the age of five what she wanted to do for a living – draw pictures! After earning a degree in graphic design and working in the greeting card industry (where she got covered in glitter every day!), she finally moved onto her dream job, illustrating children’s books. Always passionate about environmental issues, Julia was inspired to write Bloom after reading that disposable masks would soon outnumber jellyfish in the ocean. Her hope is to help children understand and appreciate the delicate balance of life in our waters.
