A hilarious summertime story about an egotistical seagull and a self-effacing crab that reads like a mash-up of Mo Willems and My Cousin Vinny.

In this laugh-out-loud illustrated adventure, the sneakiest seagull on the beach meets his match when a plucky crab makes a grab for the tastiest snacks.

Get a good look, because Smug Seagull just so happens to be the best snack swiper from shore to shore. That's a fact!

Sandwiches. Pretzels. French Fries. You bring 'em to the beach, he's going to swipe 'em. But when a crab with even better swiping skills comes along, this seagull will have to decide if there are enough treats on the beach for everyone . . .

Maddie Frost's unforgettable characters and bright, kid-friendly illustrations combine in this humorous story about patience, sharing, and wicked good snacks.
