The Slipper Shell's Secret
a book of the shells that stack
William Vincent Carleton
On the sand stand small towers of shells, the ones below holding up the ones above. Lúmine gathers them with open hands, and Líam doesn't mind that they're stacked. A book about things that live well together, and about holding a find for a little while before giving it back to the shore.
