A beach day of greetings and discovery

A child’s series of cheerful hellos turns an ordinary trip to the shore into a catalogue of small discoveries: shells, moving water, driftwood, dune grass, and even litter. When the family comes across debris tangled together, the girl and her parents clean it up before returning to their day. The beach setting ties together celebration, shared family activity, and care for the place they are visiting, with attention to both its natural details and the rubbish that can wash ashore.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 interested in beach settings and nature discoveries
  • Families seeking a picture book that includes a shared cleanup activity

Book overview

A day at the beach is full of celebration, helping out, and especially discovery in this energetic and beautiful new book by the New York Times bestselling creator of My Heart and The Book of Mistakes.

Hello, sand. Hello, toes. Hello, ocean. Hello, hello, hello!

In this glowing portrait of beachtime joy, a girl greets the many things she encounters, celebrating them all. Razor clams and sand dollars, the splish and splash of water, logs and dune grass and . . . uh-oh, garbage too. When she discovers a knotted pile of debris, she and her parents work to get it cleaned up, then go on with their busy, happy day at the shore.
