Description

Using graphic organizers, simple text, and photographs, this book provides an introduction to tide pool habitats and the plants and animals that live in them.

Quick Summary

Get ready to explore the secret underwater world hiding in rocky tide pools where sea stars cling to stones, hermit crabs scuttle across the bottom, and sea anemones wave their tentacles like tiny underwater flowers. Kids will love the up-close photographs that turn them into marine biologists discovering how ocean animals survive in this ever-changing habitat between the tides. If your kid loves "Magic School Bus" science adventures or "Who Would Win?" animal books, they'll be hooked on discovering tide pool creatures. This is perfect for kindergarten through third graders who are starting to read independently and crave real science facts about amazing animals.
