This story is both entertaining and very informative. Though it comes close to overloading on facts at times, the liveliness and realism of the "bear-child" character saves this book from becoming too dull for young readers. Due to the length and relative complexity of the topic, Shells! is not storytime material. However, it is a wonderful book for teaching children about seashells and ocean life.
