The Wide, Wide Sea

by Anna Wilson, illustrated by Jenny Lovlie - £6.99  Nosy Crow Ltd (2021)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9781788007047 | ISBN 10: 1788007042

A lyrical and inspirational picture book about protecting nature from plastic pollution.
 
When a young child forges a special connection with a seal on a trip to the seaside, their imagination takes them on an unforgettable journey. Through their eyes, we have a chance to explore everything the amazing beach and wide, wide sea has to offer... until suddenly a violent storm blows in. The next morning the beach is ugly... and covered in litter. Whose fault is it? And who can fix it? Together, the child, their grandmother, and the rest of the community clean the beach, and the child makes a promise to the seal that things will change for the better.
 
Written by author and wild-swimmer Anna Wilson and illustrated by Waterstones Children’s Book Prize winner Jenny Løvlie, this is the perfect story to share with children from 3+ who love the seaside.
 
Published in collaboration with the National Trust, who protect over 700 miles of wild coastline in the UK.
