What's the book about?

A big red crab dives down into the deep, cold sea because he wants to meet the other sea creatures and make some new friends. But a tiny shrimp thinks the crab is dangerous and warns everyone to hide, so the poor crab can’t find a single fish anywhere. In the end, he decides the sea is too cold and lonely, and he scuttles back to his cosy rock pool where he feels safe and warm again.
