The first pages
Kai and his big sister Leilani were at the beach in San Diego. Kai tossed his striped beach ball high into the air. Then the wind grabbed it!
The ball bounced over a sandcastle. It bounced over a sleeping uncle's tummy. Boing! Uncle Makoa woke up and said, "Was that a seagull?"
What happens next? The rest of the story, every painted page and Buzzby's narration open with a free account.
