Love! Love! Love! This series!

I'm getting them all if that tells you anything. These pack a lot of info in a fun unique way. My kids carry them everywhere and have started really "Investigating". I have a lot of nature books but this series is my favorite so far. My children are 5 years apart and it works just as well for both of them while making me happy with real facts.

5.0 out of 5 starsA nice, informative book on all things beach related.
By Candi K on September 23, 2015
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
I ordered this book for my son and his family when they were going to the Coast for a summer break. I thought it would work well for my two grandsons, ages 4 and 6, and the beach combing I knew they would be doing. It worked well for them, therefore, I would recommend it to anyone else who plans on doing a little beach collecting themselves.

3.0 out of 5 starsGeneral Information for Young Readers
By Robin C. on March 19, 2015
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
I bought this gift for a young friend who has an interest in seashells. I also purchased a large designer bag of seashells and a starfish mix from U.S. Shell, Inc. My idea was that the book could be used to identify many of the seashells. Unfortunately, there were very few shells that were featured in the book. Possibly I should downgrade the shell selection instead if the book, but I feel that the variety in the book was too limited to live up to the name of the book.

I will say that the book very nicely covers the shells, crabs and sea stars that are included. The book also addresses the creatures which formerly inhabited the shells as well as including activities to encourage the reader to learn more about the subject. In my opinion, it is an very good overview of the subject, deserving another star. However, for my purposes there was not the variety that I was expecting from reading the description of the book.

Also the book arrived with the binding bent. This circumstance did not enter into my rating, as clearly the packaging was not the fault of the author. However, the book arrived loose in the box with the smaller boxes of shells and sea stars and was probably damaged during transit as the items shifted.

Bought the Kindle version and although it was black and white, provided the information for the Ocean Week report that we needed. It was great to be able to have right at your fingertips so quickly and not have to wait for the mail.
