For children that are young readers, having a simple story is less important than an intricate plot. The illustrations are a big attraction for this book, and I think it will inspire the imagination of children who read it. Nice review.

I agree whimsical is such a great way to describe this book. I think that younger kids would appreciate this the best. Even though I don't read children's books I enjoyed reading this one.

"Looice" by Ben Goldstein and Phillip Namanworth. An interesting children's book, talks about Looice's adventure on the beach. Children reading the book will find it enjoyable and playable. Congrats on the #BOTD.

This book wasn't exactly what I had in mind, as the photos and words were confusing to me. Even though it was not what I expected, Looice is a funny character that children can relate to. Thanks for the review! :)

A children's book that follows a day at the beach with Looice. A picture book that shows Looice do silly things like trying to drink the tide and planting peanuts in the sand. This is a great book for little children with the colorful illustrations and story that little ones will enjoy. Good review.

Thanks for the review. I didn't really have the time to read the whole book, since I am not a mother/grandmother and never loved children's books...except when they are colourful like this one.

I think this book--and the accompanying song--would be thoroughly enjoyed by the grandparents who grew up in the '60s! :D
Thank you for your review and recommendation, and congrats on BOTD.

An excellent book for small children. Not all books need to have a hidden message. A fun day at the beach, sounds like a perfect, relaxing read to me.

This is so beautifully playful. I want to see how far a day at the beach can go... This is some good play on the imagination and can definitely sharpen creativity. This review is beautiful and convinces me to further read this.
