On Gull Beach by Jane Yolen - OPTIONAL

Yolen, Jane On Gull Beach, pictures by Bob Marshall.  PICTURE BOOK.  Cornell Lab Publishing Group, 2018.  $17.  9781943645183.

As a boy wanders down the sore, he reaches for a starfish just as a gull snatches it and flies away.  The boy chases after, following the starfish as it is tossed from gull to gull.

Yolen well-crafted poetry and Marshall’s beautiful art combine for a simple book about life along the shore.  For children who have never been to a beach, this would be a welcome glimpse into this habitat.
