Abstract

"The Squish" is a children's picture book by Breanna Carzoo that tells the story of a sandcastle protagonist who faces a series of challenges and indignities after being stomped on by one of its creators. Despite its efforts to rebuild itself, the sandcastle is repeatedly destroyed by various forces. However, when it encounters another sand creation that has also been squished, the sandcastle realizes that they are not alone in their struggles. With the help of engineering-minded sand crabs, the two sandpiles come together to form a dual-towered castle, emphasizing the importance of solidarity and resilience. The book features visually engaging cut-paper collage illustrations and is suitable for children aged 4-8. [Extracted from the article]
