Gaspard at the Seashore (Gaspard and Lisa Books) Book

Gaspard, the adorable black dog from Gaspard on Vacation, is on holiday again. This time he has convinced his parents to send him to windsurfing camp. On the train ride there, Gaspard sits between two returning campers. "Victor told us that he was a champion swimmer, and this summer he wanted to become a champion windsurfer. 'I'm a champion swimmer, too,' said Valerie. 'Me too,' I said." Unfortunately, that's not quite true. In fact, Gaspard can't swim at all! Lucky for him, camp counselor Mr. Duval is pretty understanding, and, with his shark-shaped flotation ring, Gaspard is soon the envy of all the kids (or so he thinks). Author Anne Gutman and illustrator Georg Hallensleben make the perfect team for this positively charming series about Parisian pooches Gaspard and Lisa (Lisa's Airplane Trip, Gaspard and Lisa at the Museum, etc.). The stories are simple; the artwork is exquisite and breathtakingly cute. (Ages 3 and older) --Emilie CoulterRead More
