The book mentions that Link can hold out his shield to block enemies and the case of [[Spiked Beetle]]s, the shield will flip these enemies on their back, revealing their belly as a weak spot. The book also hints to the upgraded [[Mirror Shield]] that Link gets later in the quest.

Rather than mentioning that some enemies can be "filliped", the 2019 version references that [[Sea Urchin]]s can be pushed safely with the shield, an essential technique at the start of the game towards recovering Link's [[sword]] on [[Toronbo Shores]].
