Review by a seven year old boy,
By A Customer
This review is from: Grasper: A Young Crab's Discovery (Paperback)
I think "Grasper" is a great book. I'm only seven and I never had to stop once. If you want a book with good illustrations and pictures...Grasper's the one!

This review is from: Grasper: A Young Crab's Discovery (Paperback)
I use this book as gifts to inspire people to go out and achieve all they can be. It is really an amazing story for adults as well as children. Would be great to sell at women's retreats or something.

A SUNKEN TREASURE...,
By
This review is from: Grasper: A Young Crab's Discovery (Paperback)
Grasper is a young crab who says he ''feels as though he is going to burst''. The other crabs tell him he is going through the process of molting for the first time. ''Be careful Grasper,'' they tell him ''for when your shell is soft, so is your heart, and that is a dangerous life''. Grasper ventures above the rocks of his home and into a lush coral reef where he discovers a world full of hidden wonders. Lewis's intricately detailed illustrations are enough to take one's breath away. They capture that ''underwater feel'' reminiscent of Grame Base's classic picture book THE SIGHN OF THE SEA HORSE. GRASPER is a beautiful parable about how an open mind can achieve miracles.
