Synopsis

Any young seashore visitor or beachcomber will enjoy this beginner's guide to crustaceans from Cathryn and John Sill, creators of the celebrated About... and About Habitats series.

"Perfect for beginning readers or for sharing aloud with budding naturalists." ―School Library Journal

In this addition to the acclaimed About... series, former educator and author Cathryn Sill uses simple, easy-to-understand language to teach children what crustaceans are, how they look, how they protect themselves, what they eat, and where they live.

With beautifully detailed, realistic paintings, noted wildlife illustrator John Sill introduces readers to the diversity of the crustacean population, from the Sand Fiddler Crab to the California Rock Lobster. An afterword provides more details.

About Crustaceans is part of the award-winning About... series. Ideal for casual exploration as well as for early childhood and elementary science units on animals.
