Hello, Ocean!
Children's Book
Comes With An Exclusive Mini Print

A day at the beach is full of celebration, helping out, and discovery in this energetic and beautiful new book by Corinna Luyken the New York Times bestselling creator of My Heart and The Book of Mistakes.

Hello, sand. Hello, toes. Hello, ocean. Hello, hello, hello!

In this portrait of beach-time joy, a girl greets the many things she encounters, celebrating them all. Razor clams and sand dollars, the splish and splash of water, logs and dune grass and unfortunately... garbage too. When she discovers a knotted pile of debris, she and her parents work to get it cleaned up, so they can continue their busy, happy day at the shore.

Comes with a buyolympia-exclusive mini-print that is slipped inside the cover of the book.

Pages: 40

Corinna Luyken is the author-illustrator of The Arguers, ABC You and Me; The Tree In Me (an NCTE Notable Poetry Book and Indie Bestseller); My Heart (A New York Times Best Seller); and The Book of Mistakes (which The Wall Street Journal called “sublime”).

She is also the illustrator of In The Dark (Aug 2023) and Nothing in Common, both written by Kate Hoefler; Patchwork (A New York Times and Kirkus Best Picture Book of 2022), written by Matt de la Peña; Something Good and Adrian Simcox Does Not Have a Horse, both written by Marcy Campbell; and Weird Little Robots, written by Carolyn Crimi.

She was raised in Oregon, California, and Hawaii; and studied dance improvisation, poetry, and printmaking at Middlebury College in Vermont.

She now lives in Western Washington, near the Salish Sea, where she also likes to dig in the dirt, surf, and read with a cat (or two) on her lap.

And so it was that the king and queen decided to hold a contest to choose the very best arguer in the land. But what will happen when everyone is so busy arguing that they can't even hear the queen announce the start of the contest?
