About the Book
What makes a perfect beach day?
Seagulls squawking through the sky. A crab carrying his house. And Miranda and her friends, building a castle out of sand.
But at the end of a day at the beach, the seagulls go back to their nests, the crab goes back to the sea, the castle goes back to the sand . . . and Miranda goes back to Mama, who wraps her up in a hug when it’s time to go home. Because Miranda and Mama will always belong to each other.
Perfect.

“Watercolor and collagraph (printed collage) illustrations featuring large expanses of sand and sky…give this a peaceful feel in keeping with the comforting message of the text. Details, such as the salty sand sticking to the child’s skin, allow small children to vicariously enjoy a quiet beach day with Miranda.” — ALA Booklist
“Prolific author/illustrator Keller presents a lovely picture book that incorporates a tiny bit of science into a comforting theme of belonging. Recommended for all collections.” — Kirkus Reviews
“This is a disarmingly simple and reassuring selection for the youngest listeners.” — School Library Journal
