Memories of childhood summers at the beach

This book is the story of a family's summer at the beach-house, and their not-so-lazy days on the beach and in the water playing. My two and a half year old loves me to read this book to her. When she was two, our family took a vacation to the beach, and this book captures the essence of our vacation. The book allows us to share our time at the beach and all the new adventures we had all over again. The book is filled with wonder and excitement. The illustrations perfectly compliment the story, and are colorful and fun. My daughter has asked me to read the book to her dozens of times.
