Grains of Sands

Description

A little girl and her brother are blue when summer vacation is over. The family drives away from the ocean but once they’re home, she realizes her shoes are still full of the grains of golden sand. “I don’t want to throw them away … I know, let’s plant them!” the little siblings perk up while imagining what might grow. A bright yellow pinwheel forest? A crop of citron ice cream cones? Delightful illustrations depict the possibilities that spring from their fertile imaginations, which keep them busy until it’s time for bed, when they think about next year’s trip to the sea.
