What is Our Castle about?
A family heads to the beach for a day of outdoor fun. The children gather a shovel, a shell, a stick and a flag, then work together to build their very own sandcastle. Their castle looks fantastic, but the sea is coming closer. Can they finish it before the tide sweeps in? With simple words, repeated language and colourful illustrations, this gentle story follows the children’s seaside adventure and introduces young readers to the excitement of building, creating and playing together.
