Ireland's seashores are not just sandcastles and picnics - they are also full of fascinating plants and animals to discover. Packed with colourful illustrations, this book takes young readers on a journey through tidal rock pools, along sandy beaches and over rocky cliffs to discover the amazing creatures that live in our seas and along our shores, from playful dolphins to tiny crabs and mysterious shells.

Curious kids will learn about the plants, habitats and ecosystems that make the Irish seashore so special, while exploring the science behind waves and tides. The second book in the Gill Illustrated Encyclopedia series effortlessly engages with topics such as biodiversity, biology and geography - delighting children and adults alike!
