At the Beach with the Snappy Little Crab (Board book)

Introducing very young children to the world of science, these sturdy board books feature clever collages made from recycled paper and fabric. Simple rhyming stories teach about animal habitats, transportation, and the solar system, while colors, first words, and number concepts are demonstrated. Each page engages little hands with a touch-and-feel item such as a denim shark, a foam-rubber moon, or a silky leaf. Snappy, with his funny, big claws, scuttles cheerfully about the beach, looking at seashells, nipping a sunbather, fighting off an annoying seagull, and eventually arriving at his favorite spot--a rock pool.
