Beneath the Ocean is a young adult fantasy story told through various forms of poetry. J. N. Eagles uses concrete, erasure, and acrostic styles to illustrate how a young shipmate seeks to find her identity as she struggles against the mercy of the waves and her two fellow deckhands. Through a series of transformations, she strives to locate an island rumored to have buried treasure, which would end her search and, bearing riches, allow her to return home. Instead, she discovers much more while at the bottom of the ocean.
