Chadwick The Crab

By Priscilla Cummings
Illustrated by A.R. Cohen

Chadwick is a happy Chesapeake Bay club crab who enjoys a wide circle of friends - quite Orville Oyster, Matilda (a fussy, near-sighted egret), Toulouse the French Canada goose, Bernie the Sea Gull, and especially Esmerelda, the prettiest girl crab in the entire bay. But Chadwick yearns for adventure and decides that more than anything else he wants to be a star at the aquarium in Baltimore. This is the story of how one little crab realizes a very big dream.
