Welcome to Whalebone Mansion: Creatures That Lurk at a Whale Fall

Laken Slate, illustrated by Bindy James

Two small fish find a strange structure far below the ocean surface and wonder whether it is a haunted house. The building is a whale fall: after a whale dies, its body settles on the seafloor and decomposes, providing food for many creatures. Once the remains are picked clean, the whale’s bones form an eerie structure. The fish enter and encounter creatures living there.
