One June night, Daniel sees the beach covered with hundreds of horseshoe crabs spawning, as they have for 350 million years. In the morning he finds a lone marooned crab - can he save it? This text encourages the reader to preserve even the oldest species.

Precise, lyrical language tells the story: the crabs sounding like 'restless cobblestones'; black seawed on the sand looking like 'streamers left over from a party.'
--Booklist
Ruth Horowitz is "drawn to species that get overlooked because they're not big-eyed or cuddly or cute. I hope this book will show readers the rewards of reaching out to a being that may seem utterly alien at first glance."
Kate Kiesler makes her home in the mountains but enjoyed painting the seashore. "On a snowy day I could walk into my studio and be at the beach. Sometimes I could almost smell the salty air."
