'Treasures of the Tide', written by Lucy Mettler is a children's book that beautifully reminds us that the people we love never truly leave us.
Nathaniel's soothing palette and comforting characters create harmony and contentment within a story which deals with loss, nature and resillience - Gus’s grandfather takes him and his little sister, Willa Mae, to the beach to search for seashells. It’s a tradition they shared with Gus’s father before he passed away. As Gus discovers one exquisite shell after another, he marvels at their uniqueness and wonders what treasures his father is finding on the long beaches of heaven.
