A young girl regretfully says goodbye to her beach house, the seashore, and the summer as she prepares to return to the city
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Ages 4^-8. A lyrical, rhythmic, and sometimes rhyming text expresses the feelings of a child as she leaves the beach at the end of summer. She says good-bye to the seaside house, the roses, the seagulls, and the ocean that she has come to love, but back at home in the city, she vows not to lose "the shell in my pocket / The sand in my shoes." Though lightly expressed, the lines will draw readers into the child's mood of heartfelt loss and longing. Impressionistic watercolor and gouache paintings illustrate both the beach scenes and the cityscapes with finesse. Simple and expressive, this picture book strikes a chord that will resonate with many children and adults. Carolyn Phelan
