Seashells by the Seashore: A Beach Counting Book with STEM and Science Fun

Bought it for a 4 year old. Was a bit over her head.

I love the illustrations in this book. I love the story line of the children's adventure to gather shells. I love that their is a family element.This is a great book for Elementary and Kindergarten students to learn about shells and collecting shells. This is also a great gift to go along with something made of shells or in a shell shape. You can take a bag of shells you have collected and look through the illustrations and match them.

When the grand kids come south to visit, I try to have a theme for their visit. This year is was She Sells Sea Shells by the Seashore. This book worked great as they drove to the beach to look for shells.

This book is a real treasure. I love the tear-out shell-identifier page which I take to the beach with my granddaughter while shell hunting. The watercolor illustrations make this book a piece of art.

My daughters and I love this book. They love the ocean and it's great to learn the real names of all the shells that we commonly see at the beach. My only complaint is that the author wrote that the shells become empty when the animals die, or something to that effect. I was surprised to see the word "die" in a children's book, so rather than get into a conversation about death before bedtime, I change the word to "leave" without skipping a beat. Other than that, I'm really happy with this purchase.

Bought this book for my 2 year old granddaughter. We collect seashells on the beach and I knew she’d love this. I even matched up shells on my collection to the ones in the book-she loves to match them up and knows most of the shells by name now. Wonderful little book.

Let's identify and then count the number of shells we find. Sweetly written and inspiring! Gave my Grands this book as a warm up to their upcoming vacation. By the number of times they read this book, I suspect those little fellas will not only be able to count to ten, but identify their beach shells as well! Endearingly written for girls or boys!

Not only is this a great story it has great information on the types and kinds of shells. My 5 year old grandson loves it.

My little niece has had so much fun searching for shells while using this book as a guide! Really pleased with it.

Well illustrated and informative for young children.

Nice little book. Good service. Only dropped 2 stars for personal reasons. There was no mention made of the fact the book mentioned a birthday celebration which we as a family don't recognize. Otherwise, all good.

I've read this book to various age groups and children are fascinated by shells and their shapes and names.
