A lovely book with illustrations that alternate between the family activities on the beach and the children's imaginings of what could happen - swimming with the King of Fishes or a knight charging out from the sandcastle to fight off the attacking dragon. The text is very poetical, a lovely way to introduce poetry to young children. A very relaxing, calming book.

A great book to encourage imagination although my 2 and a bit year old son and I get into a fight every night when I read the word dragon and he tells me its a crocodile!!! He also has to put his foot on the page and smash up all the sandcastles!! I guess that means it really takes him to that beach - that magic beach!
