Illustrated by
Jamie Hogan.
A beach walk leads to the discovery of a star on the sand. The starfish needs to be returned to the ocean, but Ana wishes she could go, too. To fulfill her wish, her papa helps Ana "see" with his words. Grainy pastel illustrations with a natural sandy feel accompany this quiet story of nature appreciation. Information on different species (including human Ana) is appended.
