Under the guiding tide of marine ecologist Nalia and her spirited crab companion Ripple, two curious friends—Kai and Zeph—embark on a hands-on journey through Silverstrand’s intertidal zone. Equipped with waterproof notebooks and a salinity tester, they catalog barnacles, anemones, and starfish; delve into kelp forests and sand-dwelling microfauna; and learn how oyster reefs guard shorelines from erosion. When heavy rains dilute salinity, they discover freshwater’s ripple effects. By campfire light, they weave food chains connecting plankton to shorebirds and, back in their classroom, build a working tide-simulator aquarium. Tidal Zone Explorers blend playful discovery with scientific inquiry to inspire young guardians of coastal ecosystems.

Description

As a child, I remember the thrill of crouching by tide pools, heart racing as a tiny crab scuttled across my fingers or a starfish clung stubbornly to a rock. Those moments sparked a lifelong fascination with the rhythms of sea and shore, teaching me that every creature—no matter how small—plays a vital role in the grand tapestry of life. In Tidal Zone Explorers, I invite readers aged 5–10 to step into the squishy, salty world of Silverstrand’s intertidal zone. Accompanied by Kai, Zeph, and the ever-curious crab Ripple, you’ll examine barnacles like dancers, probe into hidden sand-dweller habitats, and even sample plankton under a microscope. Along the way, you’ll see how simple tools—field notebooks, a salinity tester, and keen observation—unlock nature’s secrets. Most importantly, this book celebrates the power of curiosity, teamwork, and caring for our coastal home, so every reader can become a true tidal zone explorer.
