A Home for Homer

When Homer the hermit crab outgrows his shell, he sets off in search of a new one only to find his once-pristine beach littered with plastic, and safe shells in short supply. As Homer scuttles through tangled rubbish and curious encounters, young readers join him on a heartfelt journey that highlights the growing impact of ocean pollution.

Told with warmth, gentle humour, and beautifully expressive illustrations, Homer the Crab introduces children aged 3-8 to the importance of sustainability and caring for our planet. In the background of Homer's story, observant readers will notice people quietly working to clean up the beach, offering a hopeful, secondary narrative of community action and environmental stewardship.

Perfect for classrooms, storytime, and eco-themed events, this picture book supports early conversations about reducing waste and protecting marine life, one shell at a time.
