My Mummy, My Mama, My Brother, and Me: These Are the Things We Found By the Sea

by Natalie Meisner, illustrated by Mathilde Cinq-Mars - £12.99  Nimbus Publishing (2019)
hardback    ISBN 13: 9781771087025 | ISBN 10: 1771087021

And these are the things we find by the sea
My mummy, my mama, my brother, and me.

 
With this gentle refrain, the debut picture book from celebrated author and playwright Natalie Meisner (Double Pregnant) reflects on her own two-mom, two-son family's early days growing up in Lockeport, Nova Scotia. Living by the sea offers myriad charms for the two young brothers in this poetic ode to beachcombing. When the fog disappears, the path to the beach beckons, with all the treasures it leaves behind: lobster traps, buoys, fused glass, urchins, a note in a bottle. But best of all is all the neighbours they meet along the way.
 
An unforgettable instant classic for families of all shapes and sizes. Featuring glorious watercolours by Mathilde Cinq-Mars, which capture the warmth and magic of time spent with family by the sea.
