This is a story about a family and, as we all know, families are never perfect. This one is no exception. Kevin goes to the beach with his mum, dad and sister and, although it should be perfect, he finds something to complain about all the time: the sun's too bright, his hair gets wet, he loses a flipper... However at the very end something does please him which makes the story funny and rewarding to complete. A realistic, reassuring book for 3-5s.
