Brief Summary:
A lonely sea horse named Bea cries when she finds herself all alone in the ocean.
As she moves through the ocean she meets two small crabs, three puffer fish, and so on,
until she finds herself surrounded by a variety of new underwater friends. The
illustrations in this book are amazingly created out of fruits and vegetables so each page
reveals a cleverly conceived realistic underwater moment.
