When Mrs. Seahorse lays her eggs, she does it on Mr. Seahorse's belly! She knows he will take good care of them. While he swims waiting for the eggs to hatch, he meets some other underwater fathers caring for their babies: Mr. Tilapia, who carries his babies in his mouth; Mr. Kurtus, who keeps his on his head; and Mr. Catfish, who is babysitting his young hatchlings.
Eric Carle has done it again, with astonishingly beautiful collage illustrations and a story that introduces the very young to the wonders of aquatic life...and some very special daddies. A "hide and seek" feature with acetate overlays adds a colorful surprise.
After Mrs. Seahorse lays her eggs on Mr. Seahorse's belly, he drifts through the water, greeting other fish fathers who are taking care of their eggs.

Mister Seahorse
Some colorful illustrations, a chill vibe, and a generally nice concept, paired with a poorly dated text.
The concept is to show different sea creatures where the male takes care of the eggs until they hatch. That's great!
The text itself sucks in a lot of small ways. The sea creatures are all married (Mr/Mrs seahorse, Mr/Mrs stickleback), which is unnecessary. One of the fish says that he's "babysitting" until Mrs. whatever comes back (fellow dads, you aren't "babysitting" when you take care of your kids).
Ah but I do love how every other page, Mr. Seahorse "floats gently through the ocean" and sees something interesting, hiding behind a semi-translucent page that you have to turn. Those parts are the best. I also like it when he talks to other fish upside-down.
