On The Seashore

The tide goes out and a whole world appears. R. Cadwallader Smith guides curious listeners through the life of the shore: rock pools and their patient hunters, shells and the builders who made them, seaweeds, crabs, and the small dramas played out between the tides. Written simply and warmly for young naturalists, it is just as refreshing for grown ears. A perfect companion for coastal walks and holiday memories, it turns every beach into a place of discovery.
