Have You Been to the Beach Lately?

48 pp. | Scholastic/Orchard | April, 2001 | Trade ISBN 0-531-30330-6 $$15.95
(3) 4-6 Photographs by Andrea Sperling. This slim cycle of first-person poems describes a day at the beach from the point of view of an eleven-year-old boy who builds sand walls, lazes in the surf with friends, and teases his little brother. As much aware of the babies on the beach as the college-age babes, the narrator feels himself on the cusp of change. Black-and-white photographs illustrate these casual poems.
