What seashore treasures can you find at low tide?
Sea stars creep, anemones wave, sea urchins nestle and sand dollars burrow! Meet the bright and beautiful seashore creatures of the Pacific west coast. See them at low tide before the ocean returns and they are hidden again. Toddlers and babies will be captivated by these colorful shoreline animals living in rhythm with the tides.
The creatures in this book are commonly found on the coast from Northern California to western Alaska, with British Columbia, Washington and Oregon in between.
