In "Tide Pool Trouble" by Michelle Lord, a group of children sets out to explore the wonders of a tide pool during a sunny beach day. As they investigate the vibrant marine life, they encounter various sea creatures, including crabs, starfish, and anemones. However, their excitement turns to concern when they realize that some animals are in danger due to the changes in their environment. Through teamwork and problem-solving, the children not only learn about the delicate balance of the ecosystem but also discover ways they can help protect the tide pool and its inhabitants.
