Summary:"Crab is fed up with the bay. Each day is the same; nobody cares for him or appreciates his sense of humor. So he's leaving.

Together, Crab and Larva visit the sea kelp, a fine shell-ection of oysters, mussels, clams, and a bickering group of sea anemones, amongst many more neighbors in the bay."--
