But, in fact, we barely understand how many survive or thrive. In <i>Rock Pool</i> the delights of childhood paddling are elevated to oceanic discoveries, as the fragile beauty and drama of intertidal existence is illustrated through the incredible lives of twenty-four individual creatures.</p><p>The eye-opening account of a life-long passion by a talented writer and naturalist.</p>
