There once lived a crab far away on the coast, who tried to fit in but was different to most…

Introducing our friend Claudius Crab in a newly available picture book and finger puppet gift duo.

‘The Curious Case of Claudius Crab’ is a charming rhyming children’s book which tells the story of Claudius, a tiny crab with a huge heart. Claudius, like our previous books ‘Sidney Seagull Starts the Stomp’ and ‘The Famous Fins of Florence Fish’ appeals to a wide age range. It’s a lovely story for pre-school younger children to listen to and engage with the beautiful illustrations. Slightly older children will enjoy reading along with a parent, care giver or teacher. A perfect book that grows with your child whilst delivering a beautifully subtle moral message of difference, diversity and inclusion.
