"All about ecosystems.".
Includes bibliographical references (page 32) and index.
Welcome to the seashore -- The tide goes out -- Too tiny to see! -- Microscopic ocean animals -- All about seaweed -- Clinging to the rocks -- Life as a barnacle -- Hungry hunters -- A dog whelk goes hunting -- When is a dog whelk not a dog whelk? -- A tide pool clean-up crew -- Gulls drop in for dinner -- The tide comes in -- A seashore food web.
Which crusty, ten-legged creature is on the hunt for tasty morsels of dead fish to eat? Who will be caught by the sea anemone's stinging tentacles? What is the green slime that covers the rocks, and which tiny neighborhood resident likes to eat it? And what does that seabird hope to find among those long strands of seaweed? Readers will discover how living things depend on each other and their environment for survival. Like piecing together a jigsaw puzzle, readers will discover connections and interactions between the plants, animals, and other living things that make each natural neighborhood their home.
