Online Storytime: Grandpa and Thomas
Grandpa and Thomas by Pamela Allen celebrates the special bond between a grandchild and his grandpa. Together Grandpa and Thomas find shells, dig tunnels, build sandcastles, feed the seagulls and enjoy a nice picnic on the sand. But when the sun sets and the tide comes in will the sandcastle remain standing?
This book is filled with simple, clear and repetitive language that is easy for young children to follow. The story captures a day at the beach, an activity many children have experienced or imagined.
Next time you visit the beach, take the book with you. Read the story together and look around. Can you see things from the book? The sand, the waves, the seagulls. Make connections with the book to your own day at the beach.
