Description

There's lots of fun to be had up on the beach pier, but it's down underneath where the true—and totally free—magic happens.

There's lots of fun to be had up on the pier—the Ferris wheel, the rollercoaster, Skee-Ball and Whac-A-Mole, cotton candy, copper coins, the carousel. But it's down under the pier, at low tide, where the real magic can be found. The best part? It's free.

Down Under the Pier by Nell Cross Beckerman is a poetic exploration of the intertidal zone. Beckerman's lyrical text, combined with Rachell Sumpter's dreamy, "endless summer" art, makes this the perfect beach book.
