Our Pebbles (英國版)

每次和爺爺去鵝卵石海灘，都是充滿驚喜的一天。聞著海味、撿著石頭、吃著融化的冰淇淋，爺爺總說：「這顆石頭比我還老呢！」回憶像沙灘上的小石子，靜靜陪伴著我們，這是一本描寫親情與回憶的小書，溫柔又真實。

In a tenderly told story, the creator of Thank You and The Boy with Flowers in His Hair explores small moments that were once shared by a child and grandad on a pebble beach.

Grandad always knows the best way to go to Pebble Beach. As they climb the dunes, he and his grandchild can smell the sea before they see it. There they meet a seal and find old pirate wood. They have melty ice cream. And every time, before saying goodbye to the beach, they each pick a pebble. “Do you know this pebble is older than me?” Grandad says with a twinkle in his eye. In a wistful musing on memory, loss, and love, Jarvis offers a medley of moments—Grandad’s silly dance with the wiggly knees; the two of them smushing together and painting their day the best they could. With lyrical prose and gentle, sun-kissed illustrations, he shows us such memories are always there for the taking, as lasting as pebbles on the beach.
