Secret Bay (The)

Estuaries form where rivers and oceans meet and fresh water mixes with salt. Teeming with life, these habitats serve as nurseries for fish, feeding areas for shorebirds, and homes for an amazing diversity of snails, bivalves, fish, mammals, horseshoe crabs, fiddler and blue crabs, terrapin turtles, plankton, and many others, all of whom we meet in the pages of this delightful book. Narrated in the poetic voice of the estuary itself, and accompanied by natural history sidebars about estuary cycles, this lyrical title is recommended for ages 6 to 10.
