Treasure For Our Sand Castle
For Young Readers, Kindergarten through Third Grade

Two children build a big and beautiful sand castle. One child is the narrator and says, “Let’s decorate it with treasure. Walk along the beach with me to see what we can find.” The children find many interesting seashells and other forms of sea life. Suddenly they realize “we were finding the castle’s treasure all along our walk, but we didn’t even know it.”

Treasure For Our Sand Castle is a fun story with whimsical ghost crabs, containing factual information about seashells, sea life, and the beach environment.

The illustrations, done in pen and ink and tinted with acrylics, were designed to allow for the addition of colors by the reader. The title page has a place for the child to write his or her name with the authors’ and illustrator’s.
