The little girl in Grandma's Beach, by Rosalind Beardshaw, learns a lesson or two about the the power of imagination. Emily's mum has promised her a day at the beach, but at the last minute is called to the office and has to leave her with her grandmother. Needless to say, little Em is more than a little disappointed, but when Grandma puts her thinking cap on she comes up with a wonderful plan--showing Emily that with a little imagination a bad idea can turn into a very good one indeed. Beautifully illustrated with bold, easy-to-read text, Grandma's Beach is a little gem, perfect for banishing the blues and ideal for reminding small children that it isn't always the obvious things that bring the most pleasure. (Ages 3 and over) --Susan Harrison.
