Synopsis:
This go-to identification guide for Jersey Shore beachcombers provides color photos of seashells and information about the animals that lived in them.
Ideal for beachgoers who want to know more about the shells they find, this well-organized book will help readers identify more than 35 of the most common seashells found on New Jersey's beaches. The well-researched guide offers information about the animals that once lived in the shells, including where they lived, what they ate, and even how they may have died. The handy guide's features include
• color photographs of real shells;
• fun facts about the shells and the animals that lived in them;
• a section on nonshell treasures from the sea;
• a user guide to help make identification simple; and
• a lightweight, portable size that is perfect to tuck into a beach bag.
From Sea Bright to Cape May, Seashells of the Jersey Shore will help curious beachcombers of all ages identify and learn about the shells they find "down the shore."
