  Ivo lived in a great big shell.

  More than a boy’s life could hold. 
    
  A boy named Ivo lives in a giant moon snail shell on a beach. One day, a wave carries him out to sea. While he waits to be rescued, he makes the best of his time writing story poems on the walls inside the shell. In his poems, Ivo introduces you to characters such as dolphin, the nicest creature in the ocean who brings him a crayon when he needs a new one. Crab who takes over when Ivo sleeps and writes crabby poems. There’s carrot boy who eats so many carrots that he turns into a rabbit. And two sibling pups taken in by different owners and can’t stop looking for each other.  
    
  John Himmelman’s masterful collection of poems is filled with unforgettable characters and begs to be read time and time again. 
    
  "These are not poems in the traditional sense, but rather a combination of humorous poetry and thoughtful storytelling that will engage readers’ fancies and should enjoy wide appeal among young readers, especially those who enjoy the works of Shel Silverstein and Douglas Florian. A recommended addition to library and classroom collections."—School Library Journal
