这本抒情的图画书讲述了一个男孩回到他家旁边的海边之后的生活。这个男孩喜欢思考，他的思考变成了问题。他把这些问题带到了海边。有时，他认为他能听到大海对他说的悄悄话。梦想、爱、做自己。

所以他照做了。他梦想——一个年轻的男孩，想象着他可能做的一切。他去爱——一个少年，从一个孤独的地方伸出手来交朋友。他允许自己追随本心——现在已经长大，与他的女儿一起住在海滨。

In this lyrical picture book, readers follow one boy through his life as he returns to the seashore beside his home. The boy likes to think, and his thoughts turn into questions. He brings these questions to the sea. At times, he thinks he can hear the sea whisper to him: Dream. Love. Be.

So he does. He dreams—a young boy imagining all that he might do. He loves—a teenager, reaching out from a lonely place to make friends. He allows himself to just be—now grown, sharing the seashore with his daughter.
