In this wordless book, we follow a beach ball as it blows down the beach. Each page shows a different section of the beach and there are things for us to notice around different themes: shapes, colors, numbers, and so forth. Sis is known for detailed illustrations, and this is a wonderful book to sit with for a while.

While at the beach, Mary and her mother see letters, numbers, colors, shapes and more. ( )

Every time I look at this book I notice something new. Mary's beach ball blows away, and as she chases it down the beach she sees many interesting people and things that are categorized by color, number, letter, shape, opposite, and in a maze pattern. She finds her ball and everyone cheers, and then it's just her and her mom, alone on the beach as if it had all been a dream. I love how there are so many elements encorporated in this book- there's a lot of interaction to be had on each page. Peter Sis is great! ( )
