A hilarious celebration of summertime, curiosity, and outdoor play in this companion to Just One Flake, from critically acclaimed author-illustrator and elementary school librarian Travis Jonker

It's the perfect day to go to the beach. The sun is shining, the sand is warm, and the water is . . . completely still?

Liam is determined to catch a wave, no matter what. He tries waiting patiently . . . no luck. He asks the seagulls for help . . . they are no help. He even tries tempting a wave with his beautiful sandcastle, but the water refuses to budge.

Nothing seems to work. Until, in a sudden moment of inspiration, Liam realizes if he can't find a wave, he'll just have to make one himself.

From librarian and picture-book creator Travis Jonker comes this companion to the beloved Just One Flake--another hilarious and satisfying story all about the magic and creativity of outdoor play.
