What the shell? They make pretty jewelry, interesting instruments, and homes to all sorts of creatures. This edition of ASK Magazine focuses on shells, and all the life that lives within them, as well as all the fantastic things you can do with the shells you find.
Explore how pearls are created, follow hermit crabs from shell-to-shell, and see how turtles have evolved (or not) over 200 million years. And it’s not just sea shells you’ll study by the sea shore – snails have shells too. Your kids (and you) will learn about mollusks, echinoderms, and more with sensational stories, awesome articles, and cool cartoons.
