About the Author Michelle Houts became fascinated with sea Glass while visiting the coast of Maine each summer.
A stunning ode to stories and the seaside, this picture book invites readers to imagine the ocean of possibility that lives in every small or forgotten treasure.
Could the very piece of sea Glass on his nightstand have come from that bottle? For the rest of the summer, he searches for more sea Glass and hopes to have dreams that will reveal more of the sea\'s secrets.
That night he dreams of an old shipyard and the breaking of a bottle.
When his grandmother shows him a piece of sea glass, Thomas is transfixed.
She gives him a magnifying Glass that once belonged to his grandfather, and with it Thomas explores the beach, turning grains of sand into rocks and dark clamshells into swirling mazes of black, gray, and white.
One summer, a boy named Thomas visits his grandmother at her seaside cottage.
