In Beach, a boy seeks modes of transportation--notably, a camel--to get to and from the seaside. Boat finds the title character facing sea monsters and storms. These sturdy square-shaped books with die-cut covers will stand up to repeated page-turning. Design features include some variety in font size and text that wraps words around the imaginative watercolor and ink illustrations. Review covers these titles: Little Boat and To the Beach.
