What Lives In A Shell?

A house is a home for you, a nest is a home for a bird, and a cave is a home for a bear. But for some animals, a shell is a home. Snails and turtles and crabs and clams all have shells that act as their homes and protect them from harm. This Level 2 Let’s-Read-and-Find-Out picture book by award-winning author Kathleen Weidner Zoehfeld and award-winning artist Helen K. Davie is a fascinating exploration of the many creatures that make a home in a shell.

Now rebranded with a new look, this classic picture book features rich marine vocabulary and beautifully accurate illustrations of the many types of shells-inside and out! Young readers will love exploring the fascinating homes of creatures like hermit crabs, scallops, and turtles. Both text and artwork were expert-reviewed for accuracy.
