A timely tale of cleaning up our beaches from Fiona Lumbers: what can you do to help reduce plastics in our ocean?

Clem is an explorer, a collector, a protector of the seas! Treasure hunting on her beloved beach, she stumbles across Crab, his claw stuck in a plastic bag. Crab will be much safer and happier in the city with Clem, but doesn’t he belong on the beach? A stunningly illustrated timely tale of cleaning up our beaches, with the message that every small action helps.

Book Features:

An eloquent and visually stunning tale with a timely environmental message about the effects of plastic on our ocean wildlife.
It delivers an important message when Clem tells her classmates that lots of small actions can make a big difference.
Fiona Lumbers is the acclaimed illustrator of Luna Loves Library Day, The Secret Sky Garden, and I Like Bees, I Don’t Like Honey. Clem and Crab is her first picture book as both author and illustrator.

About the Author

Fiona Lumbers has drawn on anything and everything from an early age and always insisted she would be an artist when she grew up. Fiona moved to London in 2000 to study for an MA in Painting at the Royal College of Art. A combination of her obsession with picture books and the arrival of her first son led her down the path of illustration and she hasn't looked back since. Nothing makes her happier than splashing watercolours and inks and conjuring up new characters - often influenced by the exploits of her two sons.
