Summary

In these coastal poems for kids, children meet sea lions, starfish, jellyfish, and other animals in the ocean, and dream about sandcastles and other beach activities. This fun, lyrical children's poetry collection by award-winning children's singer and songwriter Eric Ode features lively illustrations by Washington State Book Award recipient Erik Brooks.

Sea Star Wishes

Do sea stars make wishes
on stars of the night
and dream that they might
be as shiny and bright?

And if they make wishes
perhaps it could be
that fishes make wishes
on stars of the sea.
