A New Shell for Crab
A sunny beach at low tide. A small orange hermit crab with tall stalk eyes peeks out of a snug spiral shell on wet sand. Around it lie a few pebbles, a starfish, a strand of seaweed and several empty shells of different shapes and sizes. Small waves roll in behind.
Crab's shell was too small.
