 This book helped me want to be biologist at an early age November 18, 2007
I grew up in the 1960s' and Pagoo, Minn of the Mississippi, and Paddle to the Sea were among my very favorite books. Of all of them, Pagoo is packed with information that makes the exciting world of tidepool life accessible to children. It is a must read for any young person excited by marine biology.
Wonderful book! June 2, 2007

I bought this book after reading other Holling C. Holling books. The book is wonderful! The pictures are good and the story is excellent. What I love about Mr. Holling's books is that they can be used multi-level. Even my 3yo was interested in learning about Pagoo the Hermit Crab.
This is a fantastic classic for nature lovers April 27, 2007

I first read this book when I was in graduate school. I was so excited about it that I gave it as a gift to several children and my biology professor. The story, the biology and the artwork all worked together to make this a sheer pleasure to read and share.
I read this book several times as a child. September 30, 2002

I loved Pagoo as a child and have just read it to my two boys. It is a wonderful story of a little hermit crab and his adventures while growing up in a tide pool by the sea.The illustrations are beautiful. A must for any young reader interested in ocean life.
Still wonderful after all these years September 12, 2002

I read this book in elementary school and went looking for it again last year as a gift for a niece. The story is wonderful and little Pagoo is a really lovable character. But there's also a lot of fascinating natural detail. And stunning illustrations. It's a children's book version of a top-notch Nature documentary. "Nova" in print, if you will. Also check out Holling Clancy Holling's other books. They're all great, even looking back at them after three decades.
