Descubre el mundo oculto de una poza de marea siguiendo a una cangrejita ermitaña durante un día lleno de cambios, peligros y encuentros inesperados, mientras busca un nuevo hogar.

En una gran poza de marea de la costa central de California, lo que a simple vista parece solo un grupo de rocas se llena de color y emoción cuando una cangrejita ermitaña comienza la búsqueda de una casa más grande. A lo largo del ciclo de las mareas, deberá enfrentarse a condiciones extremas: olas que golpean con fuerza, depredadores hambrientos y un vecindario lleno de criaturas sorprendentes, todo mientras intenta encontrar su nuevo hogar. A través de hermosas ilustraciones y fotografías reales, los lectores aprenderán sobre las adaptaciones de muchas especies, por qué ocurren las mareas, cómo funciona la red alimentaria de las pozas de marea y mucho más.

Discover the hidden world of a tide pool while following a hermit crab through 24 hours of tide cycles, dangers, and chance meetings as she searches for a new shell.

In a great tide pool along the central coast of California, what from afar looks like just a rocky outcropping comes to life with color and drama as a hermit crab searches for a new, larger shell. The crab must survive extreme conditions through the course of a tide cycle–encountering crashing waves, hungry predators, and a neighborhood of diverse animals–in order to find her new home. While following the crab’s story through gorgeous, paneled illustrations, readers will also learn about the adaptations of a wide variety of creatures, why tides happen, the tide pool food web, and more through sidebars and photos.
