Connect with the Chesapeake Bay

This book creates a wonderful opportunity to teach children about the Chesapeake Bay and the wildlife that live there. The story surrounds the reader with local images that will be familiar to anyone in the Chesapeake Bay area and give the reader a connection to the story. These images are also popular tourist attractions and could be used in conjunction with a vacation or school trip to the area; educating children about the Baltimore Aquarium or the United State Naval Academy. The story follows Chadwick as he uses the help of his friends to travel away from his home in the Bay to a new home in the Aquarium where he can be a star and avoid the winter hibernation.
