Book Summary

Look Both Ways meets Seedfolks in this masterful novel from two titans of kid lit that follows a diverse cast of young people whose lives intersect in surprising and hilarious ways over the course of a summer day. Hereโ€™s whatโ€™s so cool about the beach. Kids are everywhere! Kids you know, kids you want to know. Wandering from one blanket to another, from one family to another. Somebodyโ€™s mom reads a fat summer novel. Somebodyโ€™s dad snores with an iPad on his chest. Babies cry. Girls laugh. Frisbee players whoop! Kites in the perfect blue sky. Some kids bodysurf. Some donโ€™t even like the water. They build sand cities for their friends and sand jails for the grown-ups, and when the tide comes in everything gets washed away. Thereโ€™s the other world, where all kids hear is tomorrow, next week, next year. And then thereโ€™s the beach, where everything is right now ! Why canโ€™t every day be a day at the beach? From two-time Newbery honoree Gary D. Schmidt and two-time PEN Award winner Ron Koertge comes a moving and often laugh-out-loud funny middle grade novel about family, friendship, and belonging, told by a group of kids spending a day at the beach. Thoughtful vignettes brilliantly weave together an irresistible tale of tween conflict and connections. What happens when more than a dozen different kids share the same stretch of sand for a single summer day? Unlikely Friendships: From a boy who cant swim to a runaway bride having second thoughts, strangers connect in surprising ways between the blankets and the boardwalk. Humor and Heart: Laugh-out-loud momentsโ€”like a lost bathing suit and a secret circus on the sandโ€”mix with heartfelt discoveries about family and what it means to belong. High-Stakes Searches: One boy frantically hunts for a priceless, one-of-a-kind phone, while a girl and a stray dog sheโ€™s befriended search for his missing owner. Finding Courage: A son helps his sick father feel the ocean one last time, while a young immigrant confronts a figure from his familyโ€™s painful past.
