Bringing the Beach Home

A heartwarming picture book about the healing power of creativity and nature as a young child learns to bring the beach home through a special craft, offering comfort during life’s transitions.

"Delicately warm and lovely. This is an understated yet graceful portrait of a child channeling negative feelings into something beautiful." —Kirkus Reviews

When the back-and-forth between Mom’s and Dad’s houses feels like too much, Rowan finds peace in the sounds of the waves and the feel of the sand. A wind chime made from collected beach treasures becomes a symbol of comfort, resilience, and the power of creating with our feelings.

This lyrical story supports emotional regulation and helps children process transitions through grounded, sensory storytelling.
