HOUSES FROM THE SEA

by Alice Goudey ‧ RELEASE DATE: N/A

Alice Goudey, author of the Here Come series, in her text on the sea and sea shells, adorns her informative narrative with poetic beauty. The soft wash illustrations of Adrienne Adams effect a perfect fusion with the tone of the writing which is at once lucid and evocative. Taking the most common types of shells indigenous to the American shores, Houses From the Sea introduces and identifies them, and furnishes miscellaneous facts as to their backgrounds and uses. A delightful book to read and one which will transform summer strolls along the sea into rich periods of discovery.
