Items related to S is for Sea Glass: A Beach Alphabet: A Beach Alphabet
The tickle of sand on the bottom of bare feet... the taste of salt from a spray of water... the rumble-roar as waves come ashore. These are just a few of the many sensory experiences a day at the beach can bring. S is for Sea Glass: A Beach Alphabet uses a variety of poetry forms such as free verse, haiku, and ode in this celebration of the beach and seaside life. From a walk down the boardwalk to collecting sea glass to imagining the life of a shell's former occupant, poet Richard Michelson reminds beach-lovers of all ages the many reasons why we're drawn to the shore.

From Booklist:
Michelson takes up the challenge of writing beach-related poetry for every letter of the alphabet, with topics such as flip-flops, pails, and waves. While most of the poems take place in summer, in “I Is for Ice,” a child in a snowsuit visits a familiar beach in winter and finds it utterly strange, “like a magical ice castle floor.” One or two poems appear on each double-page spread, accompanied by a pleasant watercolor illustration. Reflecting the words and tone of the verse, the pictures create varied effects within the seemingly similar setting. Offering a view of the beach from overhead, the picture for “U Is for Umbrella” shows a colorful garden of patterned beach umbrellas. Ettlinger’s paintings of animals (dogs, gulls, crabs) are particularly well drawn. A nicely illustrated collection of beach poems accessible to primary-grade children. Grades K-3. --Carolyn Phelan
