Fun fact: Author Charles Griffiths has named marine species after his
two children: Mathamelia and Leminda millecra.
Did you know that limpets grow their own seaweed gardens? Or that sea
anemones fight one another to defend territories? What’s up with whelks
surfing the waves in search of food? How does a starfish move? Does the
paper nautilus really have a shell?
All this – and much more – about South African marine life is explained
in Explore the shore. Written in an engaging and conversational style,
the book encourages curious but novice naturalists of all ages to head
to the shore to explore for themselves.
Readers will learn not only about general life on the shore but also
about some weird and interesting aspects of creatures’ behaviour. Armed
with the information in this book, a beach walk can be more exciting
than any safari!
Pop-up features like personal anecdotes from the authors, interesting
fact boxes and tongue-in-cheek comments from their adorable labradoodle
Ben, who accompanies them on their beach visits, will make for
personal, inviting content that readers will love.
