In this book, readers will explore a seashore habitat and discover how tide pool animals rely on each other for survival. This title cleverly takes young readers on a mini safari through a tide pool making connections between the living things that call it home. For example: "As fish and other animals feed on seaweed, crabs use the seaweed as a place to hide from predatory seabirds. As barnacles feed on plankton, dog whelks go hunting for barnacles. And after an oystercatcher eats a dog whelk, a hermit crab that's grown too big for its shell, moves into the empty dog whelk shell!"
