A family of seven sets out for a perfect beach day, but chaos ensues. With forgotten items like Fido, a cooler, and Baby's ducky pail, plus unpredictable weather and traffic, will they ever reach the shore? Join their hilarious journey as they navigate mishaps and mayhem, hoping for the best beach day yet. Can they overcome the odds and make it to the sand and surf?

From the publisher

It’s a perfect day for swimming, building sand castles, and flying kites. But will this wacky family of seven ever make it to the beach? First they need to go back for Fido. Then there’s the cooler full of soda. And what about Baby’s beloved ducky pail? Even with all the things everyone has forgotten to bring, the unpredictable weather, and the stop-and-go traffic, this family’s beach trip is sure to be the best yet. That is, if they (and all their stuff) can get there!
