Description: A young barnacle named Abraham is on a search. Where should be stick to? Where shall he spend the rest of his life? Every adolescent barnacle is a free floating organism living underwater until it secretes a natural glue allowing it to stick to something for the rest of its life. From oyster colonies to the depths of the ocean, he encounters many barnacles, tempting him to stick with them. Abraham grapples with his journey and his mother's advice to, "Find a place that will make you happy."--Page [4] cover.
