Bye, Ocean

"Bye, Ocean! We love you!" the little girl sang along, a big smile on her face, because she knew she'd be back again. Her heart needed this place.

This quaint and beautifully-illustrated children's story perfectly captures that last-day-of-vacation, nostalgic feeling.

We've all experienced making memories at the beach with loved ones, friends, and the fun sanderlings as they scuttle along the shore. For many of us, these are current opportunities to soak in the sun and have a great time with our little ones at the beach. For others, the beach brings back memories of loved ones and times gone by. The words of this book and the works of art on the pages will connect with your heart and your fondest memories of spending time with family by the ocean.

"Bye, Ocean" is a heartfelt story about family, the beach, and soaking up every moment that is sure to touch the hearts of readers of all ages. Written by Nadette Rae Rodgers, award-winning author of the Illusion Trilogy, the Hoo Loves You children's book series, and "Wanna Cuddle? And Other Modern Love Letters". She is also a pediatric Speech-Language Pathologist.
