The Burgess Seashore Book for Children

"An invaluable companion to any child spending a seashore holiday." — New York Herald Tribune
Familiar burgess characters Danny Meadow Mouse, Jimmy Skunk, and Reddy Fox explore every nook and cranny of the shoreline and learn first hand about the habits and habitats of spider crabs, sea cucumbers, sand eels, and that strangest of little fishes — the sea horse.

Along the way he weaves the area's many life forms into an entertaining tale that's also an illustrated guide to the seashore's natural history.
