So many of the same things that make me happy at the beach. As I live inland (way inland). trips TO the beach are few...and I soak in every second...just as this little book has done. And. I love that there is a back page to list my personal reasons! The watercolor illustrations are charming.A perfect hostess gift that would warm anyones soul. Especially those who have cottages beach-side!1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Five StarsBy Judy McKinleyLove all beach books0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
