Good night, good beach / Joy Cowley and Hilary Jean Tapper.

Cowley, Joy, (author.). Tapper, Hilary Jean, (illustrator.).

Summary:

This picture book distills the essence of summer at the beach- skin sticky with salt, sandy feet, waves hush-hushing and a shell under the pillow. This simple poem by internationally renowned Joy Cowley transports the reader instantly to a childhood summer. Summer holidays by the sea have a rhythm all their own. With a few well chosen images Cowley takes us straight to the end of a long hot day, with beach treasures under the pillow, the sound of the waves and the salty smell of the sea. Hilary Jean Tapper's warm watercolour and ink illustrations bring to vivid life a quintessential childhood experience.
