Description
Along the rocky shore, tide pools reveal a world teeming with tiny creatures. This fact-filled book introduces young readers to limpets, barnacles, and whelks animals that make their homes in and around these shallow pools. As the tide rolls in and out, these small invertebrates must adapt to constantly changing conditions. Through colorful photographs and accessible facts, children discover how these often-overlooked creatures survive and thrive in their seashore habitat.
