Everyone loves the beach. . . except Chipmunk. Can best friend Bear help change his mind? An early reader for kindergarteners, now in Spanish.
 
A Bank Street Best Children's Picture Book of the Year in Spanish

"I like the beach," says Bear. "Not me!" says Chipmunk--and for so many reasons. Too hot, too sandy, and too many fish! As many times as Bear proclaims his love for beach activities, Chipmunk responds with the refrain, "Not me!"

As Chipmunk's misadventures pile up, he has to admit, "I am not a beach person." At this story's heartwarming conclusion, Bear asks, "Why did you come?" Chipmunk replies simply, "I came to be with you." Newly proficient young readers will find humor and a reminder about the true nature of friendship.
