Dear Beach (Upcoming)

Jacinta Boyd

“We know a place, and you know it too. A magical place dear Beach, it is you.”

From the moment children step through piccabeen palms and onto soft sands, Dear Beach invites them into a world of imagination, exploration and connection with nature. Along the shoreline they discover sparkling bubbles, seashells, coral reefs, lagoons, seabirds, rainforest creatures and the ever-changing rhythms of the ocean.

Written and illustrated by teacher, designer and artist Jacinta Boyd, this beautifully crafted picture book encourages mindfulness, outdoor play and an appreciation of Australia’s unique coastal environments. Rich with sensory language and warmth, Dear Beach is a story families will return to again and again.
