A wordless book in which a boy finds a camera at the beach and the film inside reveals fascinating underwater pictures as well as children around the world, so the boy takes his own picture and returns the camera to the sea where it will journey to another child.

Andrew hates water and intends to stay away from the ocean while at the beach, but he changes his mind when he needs water for the sand city he is building.

"The ocean, the lake, and rivers too. There are beaches everywhere for you. You must have water in all its glory, but the beaches themselves, that's another story. As I walk the beach with Grandma, I almost always hold her hand. Grandma looks down the beach, then at me and says, My, isn't life grand! Bedtime should be loving, bedtime should be sweet. Evenings end with songs and stories, make every childs day complete.." -- Cover, p.4.
