A
Brooklyn native, Frank Finale has lived at and written about
the Jersey Shore for years. An elementary school teacher in
Toms River for 38 years, he was nominated for an "Excellence
in Education Award" in 2002, and his books have been
praised by young and old alike.
Volumes
I and II of To the Shore Once More contain graceful
personal essays and poems that elicit emotional responses
and lingering memories while capturing the essence of the
Jersey Shore as well as the universal themes of life and nature.
They are also beautifully illustrated by someof the area's
most talented artists.
His
latest book, A Gull's Story, is a highly detailed and
visually stunning book that will take children on a well-rounded
journey at the Shore with a few life lessons along the way.
It is a book children, parents, and lovers of the Shore will
treasure for years to come. Exquisitely illustrated by children's
book artist Margie Moore. |
