Everything at the beach is covered in this book from 'The Sand Lady'. She knows her stuff! The concern for the natural world and the years gone by are both present in this gem. It is just a treat to read and brings alive the old time spirit of a day by the sea. I spent many a day on that Ocean City boardwalk! There is plenty to learn and more to see in the lovely illustrations. A wonderful book for a child headed on a beach vacation or just dreaming of one! Ann Clarke, author of People Are So Different! based on tolerance and understanding.
Good transaction, fast shipping, all was good. Love that I can go through my friends dog rescue service site and then some of the proceeds go the dog rescue and all the vet bills and dog food etc.
