Nipper doesn't like his huge, clumsy claws. They're no use at all-they just get in the way. He'd much rather have tickly arms like Octopus, or tentacles like Sea Jelly, or flippety fins like Turtle and the fish. But one day, when he's playing with his friends, Nipper finds that his claws are very useful after all....

Ruth Galloway studied art, but is essentially self-taught. She knew she was going to be an artist from the age of eight, and is now a successful author and illustrator of a number of picture books. Ruth is a trained aerobics instructor and in her spare time she enjoys cookery and gardening. She is married with two children, and lives in Berkshire.
PreSchool-K–Nipper the Crab hates his claws, which seem to get in the way when he is playing with the other sea animals. However, the appendages prove to be the only thing that can save Octopus when he gets tangled in seaweed. All of the creatures are friendly and welcoming, even when Nipper causes chaos in their games. Galloway has a smooth style–the story floats along without noticeable bumps; the onomatopoeia and alliteration, along with the brightly colored, attractive illustrations, make this a good choice for storytimes. And the final lesson–that everyone has a special gift–will be reassuring to youngsters who may feel a little clumsy, too.–Susan E. Murray, Glendale Public Library, AZ
