Abella and the Lost Hermit Crab

Abella and her friends, Darcie and Mateo, are spending a sunny day at the beach when they discover a tiny hermit crab all by himself. He's lost his friends and, even worse, he has outgrown his shell and no longer has a safe home. Determined to help, the three fairies embark on a sandy adventure to reunite him with his hermit crab colony, where they watch the crabs line up and share shells in a clever shell-swapping chain.

Come along for an unexpected beach adventure about helping friends, finding the perfect fit, and sharing with others.

Abella and the Lost Hermit Crab beautifully blends empathy, kindness, courage and science while introducing young readers to the fascinating world of hermit crabs and their unique 'vacancy chains.' Zane's books always come to life as they are fun, engaging and spark wonder in science and nature. This one is no different.
