excellent book

beautiful pictures, nice rhymes. my 3.5yo son loves this book! not too much writing on each page (good for the impatient ones).

Rhyming beach day

The narrator is a small girl whose mom is packing the car for a day at the beach. When the car is packed, they drive off to the beach, where there's another kid to play with, sand castles to build, and seaweed to wear. The story is cute and presented in rhyme. It has about 200 words.

This author has a way with words.

I first purchased this book to familiarize my three year old son about the beach. The more I read this book, the more I liked it. The illustrations are incredible. The author has such a beautiful flow of words. I even used this book to do a lesson presentation in one of my graduate classes. I absolutely cannot wait for the authors next book to be available.

Fun at the Beach.....

What's better than a sun-filled, fun-filled day at the beach. Hearing the sea gulls squawk and playing in the sand. Making a new friend and building a giant sand castle together. You can put seashells on your toes and seaweed in your hair, play in the waves and get sand everywhere. It's fun to eat a picnic lunch on your towel, play catch with a big beach ball, wave at faraway boats and explore the rocks and tidal pools finding starfish and minnows..... Patricia Hubbell has captured those wonderful carefree childhood days in her terrific new picture book and youngsters 3-7 will delight in all the glorious summer fun. Told in lilting rhyme, her joyful text is enhanced by Lisa Campbell Ernst's soft, sun-shiny, expressive illustrations that will transport you to the beach on a perfect summer day even if the snow is falling outside your window. Sea, Sand, Me! is a wonderful addition to your home library and a book children will beg to read again and again.
