For any child who wants to see something he/she can't (seashore, mountain, forest, etc.), this book shows that you can go anywhere in your imagination. Minor's marvelous, soft illustrations will make you feel like you truly are spending a day by the sea. ( ) Living in the mountains, and never having seen the sea, the young boy in this evocative picture-book asks his mother about the shore, and she spins him a poetic tale of what he would do during a day and evening at the beach. From playing in the sand to taking a nap under the sun, the boy experiences the tranquil joy of the seashore through his mother's words... Originally published in 1992, and just reissued in this 25th Anniversary Edition this year (2017), The Seashore Book offers a beautiful examination, not just of the pleasures of a day at the shore, but also of the power of words and the imagination to transport us to far-off places. I found Charlotte Zolotow's narrative soothing, and imagine that this would make an excellent bedtime selection. The artwork by Wendell Minor, which in this anniversary edition includes a new cover, is absolutely lovely, capturing the pale beauty of the shore to perfection. I'm so glad that Minor managed to get this new edition released, so that another generation of children can experiences the pleasures of The Seashore Book. Recommended to anyone looking for engaging children's books about the beach, the sea, and/or the power of the imagination.
