"As an educator, Cindy Freland gives a reading, science, or self-contained classroom teacher an arsenal of material to work with in this one book. For children who need to practice reading fluency from the age of six up, this book is for them. For children interested in marine biology and learning about endangered species such as the blue crab, this book is for them. Each page shares a fact about the blue crab which can be used to teach and continue to engage students about this very important species in the Chesapeake Bay. Follow Curtis the Crab in his adventure to find four musicians who will play in a concert in Crab Alley Bay, Maryland, to help bring more crabs and oysters to the Chesapeake Bay. Children from 6-10 years old and adults will enjoy this story along with the rich colorful illustrations." Mary E. Evans
