A mother explains a day at the seashore to her son who has never been there before. They explore the sand and waves together, look for birds and shellfish, eat lunch on a big rock, and walk home along the pier. The little boy feels like he has been to the beach and says he can now visit it with his mother in his mind any time he would like.
The descriptions of the beach and the illustrations do very well at describing what a day at the beach is like. It’s very realistic and mostly engaging book, but it is very long. I think a lot of young readers would find it challenging to hang in there completely for this book.
