It's the kind of book that I reach for when I am having 'one of those days'. It's small, simple and yet so rich in what it has to offer. The words of wisdom accompanied by the wonderfully calming photos of beach scenes relax my mind and give me cause to stop and reflect on what really matters in this world. We all need more times like this. If you can't get away to the beach, you can at least pick up this book and transport your mind and soul there.

This is a wonderful gift book full of wisdom and humor. I actually read it while at the beach and it was fabulous. Great inspiration and insight. The writing is superb, the photography beautiful and the layout is wonderful. Would make a great gift or a pocket full of inspiration!! I'm going to use it as stocking stuffers for Christmas this year!!! I'm so glad that you at Amazon.com are carrying this book!! Keep 'em coming!!

What a peaceful book. Great gift to the beach lover or someone who needs the beach!

This wonderful book is a treat for the eyes and the mind. The secret to life is revealed within the lovely pages. I will be giving this book as a hostess gift at every barbecue and clam bake this summer! I have been re-reading it daily and each time I feel the peace of mind and inspiration that comes from a sunrise or a dip in the surf!

This was a 'cute' book. More for a child than an adult. The book size is small measuring 5" X 5" . I was hoping for a larger book to display on a coffee table. The pictures, however, are wonderful as is the 'wisdom' in the book. The size was the only issue that I had with this purchase.

Simple enough truisms, just not worth the money. I would return it if the shipping back wasn't going to cost me almost as much as the purchase price. Pretty pictures, but I agree with some of the other reviewers, they should be bigger to be effective. I would want to pay about 2.99 for this book.Doesn't add anything that many other books have already stated more eloquently.

I LOVE this book. I bought it about 2 years ago and I read it often. It currently resides at my work in my office. I share the wisdom with my co-workers. Everyone loves the way the lessons make them think and apply it to their own lives. It's nice an small (sets on my desk nicely) I have it in easy reach for when I am having a bad day or just a bad moment. I sit back and read one or two of they pages. Even the photos are calming and beautiful. It touches my mind and soul in many ways.

This book is very small in size and very large in the thoughts it stimulates. I purchased 10 of these books for my friends going on a beach trip to celebrate our 50th birthdays. It was a hit - not only does it have beautiful pictures it has some well written text.

Where I live is landlocked but I get to the beach as often as possible. This is a great inspiration and takes me there even when we are going to be burried in snow.

I love the beach so this book was perfect. Another book that would complement this would be the book "Beach Lover's Guide to the Perfect Sandwich" the two books together would make a great gift..
