Sharing a Shell

by

Julia Donaldson

Illustrator: Lydia Monks

Poor crab has lost his shell, and nobody wants to share. But when he finally finds a shell of his own, he is surprised to find himself being asked to move over! A story about sharing and friendship, this board book is both touching and amusing.
 
With glitter on every page, and atmospheric illustrations, Sharing a Shell makes for a fulfilling read:
 
'Three friends, sharing a shell/ Happy as housemates can be/ Rocketing all round the rock pool/ In their wonderful home for three!'
