Customer Reviews

Believe it or not,

We bought this gem at a super discount store (Bldg#19, if you live in MA). It's one of the best kids books we've ever gotten, and we have 3 kids, six yrs apart, now ages 16, 10, and 4. I love many kids books, and have never written a review of any of them, but I'm in the mood, so here goes: this book is a fantastically written story of a shell (try that at home all you writers), inhabited by different animals, going on different adventures, etc. It's neither politically correct or incorrect, just narrates what happens to the shell as she undergoes many interesting adventures. Kids love it! Very well illustrated and written. You would like this if you like adventure stories to tell your kids. John
