Overview

Featuring bright illustrations and a happy ending, this counting book stars 10 unlucky little crabs.

Ten little hermit crabs scuttle to the beach,

Down swoops a seagull Screech! Screech! Screech!

Hush says the seashore,

Shh says the sea,

How many hermit crabs will there be?

Ten little hermit crabs are exploring the beach, but one by one they disappear until there is only one left! Young readers will love counting aloud and seeing the last lonely crab happily reunited with all its friends.
