'We're Going on a Crab Hunt' is a children's picture book that leads readers through the exciting and fast-paced experience of searching for crabs -- and the wonder of being in nature on the beach under the moonlight. If you are looking to re-live past beach memories or to get excited to make new ones, this book is for you (or your children, grandchildren, or other special young people in your life!).


Through the story's vibrant words and pictures, readers are encouraged to have fun and count along with the number of crabs found during the story. The writing style is catered to children ages 1-6 but the book is fun for all ages of "beach people."


The story was inspired by "chase and release" style "crab hunts" that are a nighttime pastime for children and families along the Eastern coast of the United States of America, as well as in other locations. Tips at the end of the book encourage readers who may want to go on a real-life nighttime crab search to do so responsibly and kindly. These guidelines inspire readers to appreciate the unique characteristics of sand crabs and to act with respect to these animals, other animals, and the general ecosystem.


The book features colorful and diverse illustrations of children, seascapes, and crabs in a style inspired by the post-impressionism art period of the late 19th century.


The repetition and rhythm of the story will spark memories of past ocean adventures for those lucky enough to live near the beach, and those who just love to visit!


The story is sure to resonate with generations of children (and adults) who have memories of exciting beach adventures of their own from locations throughout the Eastern and Southern coasts of the U.S., including places like Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas. 'We're Going on a Crab Hunt' is the perfect gift or souvenir to help the young people in your life recall special beach experiences or be inspired to create brand new memories.
