""With text comprised almost entirely of greetings, the book evokes an appreciation of nature, particularly oceanside beaches, while still acknowledging the harm that sometimes befalls them. Luyken eschews proselytizing, her young protagonist instantly understanding the problems with human-made trash and opting to do something about it. Inks, paints, pencils, and more help to bring to life this seaside escapade, the cool foggy morning burning away to a day of sunshine.""—Kirkus ""Brayers, brushes, plastic netting, sponges, and mono-printing techniques give acrylic gouache, ink, and pencil scenes organic, breezy textures. Amid the limited-palette backdrops, scribbly looking sketches of the youth’s gleeful antics supply a likable ebullience on every page."" —Publishers Weekly
