I Saw the Sea and the Sea Saw Me

(4) PS A simple first-person, rhyming text describes a girl's day at the sea in which everything is grand until she is stung by a jellyfish. Then a tantrum takes over and she is happy to wash out the salt and sand at home in the bath. A change of heart at the end ("Tonight I'll dream about the sea. / I wonder if she dreams of me?") seems too sudden. Bold black outlines bright colors in a comic-book style.
