Shells Are Cozy and Comfortable

According to the correspondent of the Iran Book News Agency (IBNA), one of children’s pastimes is usually collecting shells by the sea. Many children love going to the sea because they can collect shells and keep them as souvenirs or use them in crafts. But how many children know what scientific characteristics shells have, how they are formed, and what their role in nature is? And have families tried to teach these topics to children?

Perhaps knowing them can make playing with shells more appealing and enjoyable for children. The book ‘Shells Are Cozy and Comfortable’ teaches children fascinating scientific facts about shells. In this book, in addition to explaining how shells are formed and what role they play in nature, various types of shells are also introduced.

On the shores of our country’s sea, we usually encounter only one type of shell, or only one type of shell is visually appealing to us. But this book, with beautiful and creative illustrations and simple, fluent language, introduces various types of shells to children so they know that the white shells they collect by the sea are not the only kind. Efforts have also been made to present this introduction in a way that makes shells attractive to children and what they learn more memorable.

Families can buy this book for children to connect their affection for shells with scientific concepts, so that a beloved childhood pastime also has an educational aspect. ‘Shells Are Cozy and Comfortable’ was written by Diana Hutts Aston and translated by Seyedeh Soudabeh Ahmadi. Sylvia Long was responsible for its creative illustrations, and Mehrsa Publications has made this book available to enthusiasts for 120,000 Tomans.
