Beach Feet

24 pp. | Enchanted Lion | June, 2012 | Trade ISBN 978-1-59270-121-6 $14.95
(4) PS Illustrated by Masamitsu Saito. Here's something original: a book-length meditation on how a preschooler experiences sand ("Ow, ow, ow!"), a wave, and other aspects of the beach. The voice doesn't always sound childlike, but the kid's wonder seems completely authentic. The art is as unconventional as the book's concept--the child's face isn't shown until the end, presumably because his toes are much more expressive.
