Every summer Tys familycame to camp in their trailer at the same beautiful spot on the white sanddunes by the ocean. And every year, as long as Ty could remember, the same oldpelican had welcomed them.This year, as soon as thetrailer was parked, Ty pulled on his shiny red wading boots and ran with hisfishing pole to look for his friend.Be sure not to lose thosenew boots of yours, his father said. And Ty didnt not really.But by the time the tide hadquietly crept in and as gently flowed out again, some surprising things hadhappened and both he and the pelican had made unexpected catches. What couldthey have been to make both boy and bird so happy when each swapped his catchwith the other?Pictures full of space andlight and the shining colors of sky and sand and sea help to tell thedelightful story of Ty's adventurous afternoon.
