Book
Inspired by Alison Lester's much-loved classic, this is the book of the film by Paper Planes creator Robert Connolly, showcasing stunning animations, live action stills, with illustrations and verses from the original book. Ten children find themselves on a Magic Beach of their imagination. They explore caves, build giant sandcastles, poke around rock pools and converse with sea animals. They dive with horses in the waves and play with magical underwater creatures. Sandcastles are built and destroyed in terrible wars. Pirates smuggle treasure into caves. And Dreamtime serpents fly through the sky and shed their scales. The dreams of these children are limitless and the magic of the beach will be in their hearts forever.
