Wondrous creatures live by the sea, and some of the most beautiful and funny-looking ones live on rocks and in tidepools.
Some critters eat with their feet, some use teeth-studded tongues, and others simply open their shells and filter food through a brown skirt.
Which are which, you ask? Keep reading and you'll find out!
Life on the Rocks is a book about 12 of the most common and easily found animals (without backbones) living on the rocky shores of the Pacific coast of North America.
Are you a budding marine biologist? Nature lover? How about a seashore explorer?
Whether you are one or all of the above, or just curious, this book will teach you something special about each animal and how it lives, eats, travels and protects itself in the beautiful, but not always easy life on the rocks.
(Oh, and if you want to laugh, there are cartoons for that.)
