Award-winning marine biologist Helen Scales introduces children to the wonders of shells, from seashells to land snails. Using a friendly question-and-answer format, she explores the incredible diversity of shells around the world and showcases the environments molluscs inhabit. From what a shell’s shape, colour and texture can reveal about its inhabitant, to where shells are found (from the deepest seas to jungle treetops), with this book readers can get close to nature to observe its wonders.
