Colin the Crab Falls in Love
Colin the Crab is a hard worker who loves spending his spare time with friends. He has a charming home, but lately it has started to feel a bit empty and lonely. Is it time for Colin to find a spouse? Colin is confused, and none of his friends knows how to advise him. One day Finley the Frog, the director of the river museum, calls Colin for help when an accident befalls an important exhibition of shells and corals. Among the broken shelves, Colin makes a delightful discovery: a girl crab with the most beautiful eyes along the riverbank.

On his way home, <strong>Col<strong>in</strong></strong> passed by Sally <strong>the</strong><br />
Starfish’s house. As he walked along Sally’s<br />
fence, he adjusted a couple of decorations to fit<br />
better between <strong>the</strong> boards.<br />
Sally was a va<strong>in</strong> young starfish who liked to<br />
brighten up her yard with decorations. Now <strong>the</strong><br />
fence was filled with shimmer<strong>in</strong>g pieces of glass<br />
and sh<strong>in</strong>y corks.<br />
Suddenly Sally herself appeared <strong>in</strong> a w<strong>in</strong>dow.<br />
“<strong>Col<strong>in</strong></strong> dear,” she called. “Would you m<strong>in</strong>d com<strong>in</strong>g<br />
over tomorrow? I’ve found <strong>the</strong> most wonderful<br />
mirror, but I don’t know how to hang it on my<br />
closet wall.”<br />
“I could come <strong>in</strong> right now,” <strong>Col<strong>in</strong></strong> replied.<br />
“I’m afraid this isn’t a good time. I have to hurry to<br />
a starfish ball. My boyfriend is com<strong>in</strong>g to pick me<br />
up soon, and I haven’t even dressed yet! I also have<br />
to oil my arms!” She fussed.<br />
“I’ll come tomorrow <strong>the</strong>n. Have a great even<strong>in</strong>g!”<br />
<strong>Col<strong>in</strong></strong> waved a claw, and cont<strong>in</strong>ued on his way.<br />
