An evocative bedtime picture book that distills the essence of a
family summer at the beach--skin sticky with salt, sandy feet,
waves hush-hushing and a shell under the pillow. Summer holidays by
the sea have a rhythm all their own. With a few resonant images,
Cowley takes us straight to the end of a long hot day with beach
treasures under the pillow and the salty smell of the sea. The
cadence of the final words echoes the shushing waves in a gentle
signal of time for readers to sleep--"good sand, good sea, good
beach, good night." This simple poem by internationally-renowned
author Joy Cowley transports the reader to a childhood summer with
language that asks to be read over and over. Hilary Jean Tapper's
warm watercolor and ink illustrations add an inclusive cast of
extended family, friends, and children of different ages.
In this resonant story, Cam the mountain boy follows the river from its trickling source in the mountain snow all the way to the coast. The river leads him through forest, farms, and towns to the salty wind of the sea. Dramatic landscape illustrations evoke a North American landscape and are packed with detail to explore the world of the river.
