Kermit is not truly a hermit crab, but he is indeed a hermit. This bad-tempered, selfish old Scrooge of a crab lives all to himself in a cave off Monterey Bay, hoarding the treasures he drags back from the sea. But when greed lands Kermit in terrible trouble and a small boy saves his life, the once-cranky crab must reckon with what it means to owe someone everything. Told entirely in rhyme and packed with Bill Peet's detailed, expressive illustrations, Kermit the Hermit is a fast-moving, funny, and quietly moving story about the surprising transformation of a very stubborn character.
