Stella and her little brother are spending the day at the beach. Stella has been to the seashore before and knows all its secrets, but Sam still has a lot of questions. Does a moonsnail come from the moon? What can you buy with a sand dollar? Stella has answers for them all. The only thing she's not sure about is whether Sam will ever come into the water. Through exquisite watercolors, this book brings to life a perfect summer day and the sweet and funny relationship between an older sister and her baby brother.

This book is super creative. I think there’s a lot to unravel here for young readers. The illustrations are great as well

I really enjoyed this story. I like the comedy aded into it from the dialogue between the brother and sister, and I also think it does a good job of showing that once you learn more about something that you are fearful of, you can overcome that fear by learning more information about it. ( )

Stella and Sam go to the seaside. Stella has been once before, and goes plunging in, but Sam has lots of questions first. (Stella's only question is, are you coming in or not? Eventually, Sam does.) ( )

Stella and her little brother are spending the day at the sea. Stella has been to the sea before and knows all its secrets, but Sam has many questions. "Where do starfish come from? Does a catfish purr? Does a sea horse gallop?" Stella has an answer for them all. The only thing she isn’t sure of is whether Sam will ever come into the water. Evocative watercolors bring a diaphanous day at the beach alive in this perfect summer story. Gently humorous, the book also captures the relationship between an older sister and her baby brother — a responsibility that can be both lots of fun and very trying. (amazon)
