On the Seashore Cassell's "Eyes and No Eyes" Series, Book VII

Imagine wandering a tide‑worn beach, a bucket in hand, as the narrator points out the hidden lives that spring from the sand. Through vivid, step‑by‑step detail we meet the five‑fingered starfish, learning how its tiny tube‑feet act like suction cups to pull the creature across the sea floor, and discovering the surprising secret of its tiny red eyes. The description brings the starfish’s strange anatomy to life, from its central mouth to the regenerative arms that can regrow if torn apart.

The book then widens the scope, guiding listeners through a series of short, illustrated lessons on crabs, shrimps, sea‑weeds and even the mysterious jelly‑fish. Each chapter blends lively storytelling with clear scientific explanations, supported by colorful plates and crisp black‑and‑white drawings that spark the imagination. Perfect for curious minds of any age, the audio experience invites you to explore the shore’s bustling ecosystem without ever getting wet.
