Clams All Year

Clams All Year Synopsis

It's summer vacation -- and all the brothers and sisters and cousins are together in a large, rambling house on the shore. Every morning at sunrise Grandpa wakes the kids to go clam digging. And every day they come back with nearly empty buckets-until the storm, that is. What happens on the beach the morning after the storm is something they will all remember for years to come. Maryann Cocca-Leffler has recreated in simple words and glowing illustrations wonderful memories of summers at the beach with her large, extended family-and of one very special summer day.
