Change is one of the scariest words in the English language for both adults and children, but for children who haven't experienced any major changes in their lives, it can be a really frightening thing. Logan was a young boy who loved his family, his home, and the life he led. But when his dad announced that he was being transferred to another city, Logan faced the terrifying prospect of packing up and leaving his comfortable life behind.Logan, who's miserable about the upcoming move, has a chance encounter with a hermit crab who shares his problem - the crab has outgrown his shell and must find a new home. By helping the crab find a new shell, Logan learns that change isn't so bad after all.It's a valuable lesson for a child to learn at an early age. Remembering my own family's first move when I was seven years old, it was a terrible time, but after the move, I quickly made new friends and found that change wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be. And so it would be for Logan.
