Reviews for Senses at the Seashore
5 ratings1 review
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Shelley Rotner’s picture book, “Senses at the Seashore, is about a child who shares the sights, sounds, smells, touches, and tastes of a day at the seashore. The message of the stimulating book provides readers with reasons to appreciate your five senses, especially when at the beach. I love this book. I like this book because the writing is engaging by luring the reader into experiencing the beach. The writing is paced well, for example the beginning of the book the page of children running on sand reads, “At the seashore…” to invite the reader into flipping the page to read more. Next, the illustrations are lively which instruct the five senses mentioned throughout the book. For instance, a page mentions to touch a soft feather and the picture underlying the message shows a young boy holding a seagull feather and looking down at the feather as if he is examining the feeling. I love how the illustrations and writing captivates the reader’s thoughts and feelings. Along with the writing, the language is clear yet descriptive. The read is simple enough for young children, but descriptive to meet all the five senses. I like how the language is patterned so that the reader feels the sensation of all the five senses, five different times. This picture book is fun and interactive for readers through details about seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting, and touching features at the seashore.
