Magic Beach

A beautiful board book edition of Alison Lester's all-time favourite Australian beach book.

Imagine a beach where you can swim, surf, splash through the waves, make sandcastles, hunt for treasure, explore rock-pools, muck about in boats, fish from the jetty, and build a bonfire under the stars. Come to Magic Beach, where adventure begins...

Magic Beach is a long-standing favourite with Australian children.
