Don't Miss the Boat
a Bahamas Fourth of July Story
Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
Beau and Jack thought they'd said goodbye to their favorite hermit crab back in the Florida Keys. So when a Bahamas vacation brings them face-to-face with a very familiar teal-striped shell, they can hardly believe it — and this time, he finally gets a name: Sheldon.
But Sheldon's adventure isn't over yet. Swimming pigs, snorkeling reefs, waterslides, and a sky full of fireworks are almost more than one little crab can resist — and the captain's warning was clear: be back by sundown, or miss the boat home.
A joyful, rhyming island adventure about wandering, wonder, and always finding your way back to the people who love you.
Perfect for ages 3–7, and a natural read-aloud for beach trips, holiday travel, or bedtime any time of year. A standalone companion to Crab's New Digs: A Keys Christmas, the first book in the Sheldon the Crab series.
