Pagoo is the story of the plight of a small hermit crab. We have been reading this as part of our summer studies and my boys are fascinated by Pagoo! This book has been a topic of conversation on many of our field trips to tide pools, and each hermit crab they find is named, "Pagoo." We have all (parents included) learned so much about marine biology from this delightful tale.
