A Farm by the Sea
$26.99
Imagine living on a farm by the water. After you finish your chores with your family, it’s time to play on the beach, where the rockpools are for sipping on sea grass tea and dancing to the music of the waves.
Jillian Packer’s debut picture book shows us how a child’s day spent first with family and then in nature makes her childhood rich with confidence, freedom, imagination and love.
"A Farm by the Sea is a celebration of nature in varying forms, of childhood and imagination. It is a delightful nod to the simple pleasures of being outside."

"Jillian Packer writes about her tender, timeless picture book, A Farm by the Sea, to describe how childhood, and the place where you live, grows you into the person you become."
Joy Lawn Paperbark
"This is a beautiful homage to the power of the beach, giving a child’s view of what she finds and how she spends her day...The illustrations are wonderfully peaceful and involving. Filled with detail, kids will love picking out the things they might find at the beach and pore over the endpapers to list the things she finds."
