The sandcastle contest - robert munsch

This favourite Munsch title gets a brand-new look Do we have everything? asks Matthews dad.

NO yelled Matthew.

No? said his dad.

No said Matthew.

We dont have dog.

Dog? said his dad.

We dont even OWN a dog I know, said Matthew.

Now would be a good time to get a dog.

Matthew wants to take his sandbox too, but his dad assures him there will be a sandy beach where theyre going.

Once they arrive, Matthew meets a girl making a big sandcastle and a big sand dog as part of a contest.

Matthew is determined to create something so wonderful, the judges will think its real.

When he wins, Matthew shares his prize with his new friend and her giant sand dog.

And when Matthew returns back to his mom and dad with his own sand dog, theyre so relieved its a small dog, they let him keep it.

With classic Munsch wit and Martchenko style, The Sandcastle Contest is a fun-filled story -- perfect to read at home or on the beach.
