Tiny treasures, big discoveries―this beautifully illustrated picture book blends beachside adventure, early science, and counting fun.
Seashells by the Seashore follows young Sue as she collects twelve seashells to gift her grandma. Along the way, children ages 3–8 will count each shell, learn how they're formed, and discover the fascinating creatures that once called them home.
Told in lyrical rhyme and accompanied by gentle watercolor illustrations, this beloved book encourages curiosity, empathy, and a love of nature―making it a favorite for both story time and STEM exploration.
Why kids, parents, and educators love this book:
- Encourages nature learning with fun facts about shells, mollusks, and ocean habitats
- Boosts early literacy and math through rhythmic rhymes and counting practice (1–12)
- Supports science education with classroom-ready content and backmatter perfect for STEM units
- Includes a take-along bonus: Two shell ID guides (paperback only) ideal for beach walks or backyard hunts
Includes child-friendly descriptions of all 12 featured shells and insight into how seashells are made.
Perfect for fans of What Lives in a Shell? and Over in the Ocean, this is an inspiring gift for nature-loving kids, classrooms, and summer reading shelves.
