Hello, little readers! Did you know that seashores are full of life and wonder? We can encounter fascinating discoveries unexpectedly, if we keep our eyes open as we walk along the beach.

In this full-colour book, through an exciting combination of photography and illustration, Professor Emeritus Chou Loke Ming and co-author, preschool educator Diana Chou, will share marvellous facts about the amazing wonders of creation at the seashores. They will tell you why it is important to protect these precious organisms.

So, are you ready to start? Let's Discover Our Seashores, Singapore!

Contents:

• Introduction
• What to Do When You Meet Wildlife at the Beach
• 25 Marine Creatures that Call Singapore's Shores Their Home

Readership: Children (6–12) and parents of young children who are curious about animals and marine life in and around seashores.

Key Features:

• The book will introduce young readers to seashore life and encourage them to explore seashore life exposed at low tide in a fun and engaging way
• Readers will be able to easily identify these creatures and become more familiar with these creatures and view them with a better understanding, and appreciate that diversity of life forms enables species to live the way they do
• A number of field guide books on Singapore's seashore life have been published. They each contain numerous species and accompanying notes are inconsistent in content and emphasis. Their target audience is the educated public but most are written to appeal to biology students and researchers. The young reader and even adults may be easily overwhelmed by the information overload and is usually unable to locate the specific creature in the book that he/she sees in the field. This book simplifies the discovery process for the young reader and parents alike
