Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Mr. Oyster lives by himself on the ocean floor, patiently waiting to show everyone his beautiful secret. He doesn't mind when the other sea creatures swim by to show off all their amazing talents and gifts - the crab's sharp claws for catching food, the angel fish's pretty scales that sparkle and dazzle, the bright pink jelly fish's long tentacles, and more. What is so special about Mr. Oyster, they all ask? He can't even swim! But Mr. Oyster knows his true value lies on the inside, and that is what matters. When Mr. Oyster's finally reveals his secret, they realize too - true beauty does not rely on what's on the outside, because it's inner beauty that matters most of all.
Mr. Oyster may not be able to swim like the other creatures of the sea, nor is he colorful or agile, but he's got a secret -- one that makes him just as beautiful as any of his friends in the sea!
