Description
There's a cool crab in my castle! He'd like to be the king. He sits there on his throne, watching everything. The newest addition to Dawn McMillan's Nature Stories series takes readers to the rocky shore, where crab meets sandhopper, snapper, kina, manta ray and more. Enticing rhymes and Nikki Slade Robinson's evocative illustrations bring the beach to life. With a fun ensemble of seaside creatures and text in Maori and English, this is an educating and entertaining read for young readers and their whanau, out in time for summer.
