My first trip to the seashore, 
 one wave tore away from the sea. 
 She caught my hand, and we raced 
 away together across the sand. 
 Based on a story by Nobel Prize laureate Octavio Paz, this delightful tale of a boy and his pet wave is charmingly retold with beautiful new illustrations. See if you can find the hidden cat, dog, mouse, whale, and sea horse in almost every picture!
