She imagines if there would be another girl enjoying the beach just like she is doing now! Maybe there is a faraway girl who likes the same things that she also likes. She imagines that faraway girl to be very similar to herself and thinks that she also would be looking up to the same sky and moon. Does she also eat the same kind of food? Can she also catch the rain on her tongue? Does that faraway girl have a similar dream just like her? Does she count every star in the sky like her? Everywhere she walks that day, she imagines the faraway girl doing the same things as her.

🌈 Absolutely stunning chalkboard-like watercolor illustrations.

🌈 The text is very simple, however, the story is very creative.

🌈 This book would make kids dream and think along with the little Gullah girl and understand how vast and beautiful the world is.

🌈 Best suited for kids in the elementary age.
