In a picture-perfect ode to the perfect day at the beach, a young boy experiences the joys of being left alone to play and dream at the edge of a wild sea. - From Amazon

what a quietly beautiful MAGICAL story! I can't get over the image of Noah laying on his belly next to his sand-seal looking out on the sea. I loved seeing the grandma working on her boat as well - quietly flipping scripts where we might see the dad or grandpa more likely to be! The back endpaper showing them sailing up to the seals made me really happy. I need a vacation now!
