  Ben is short. Zip is shorter. One day while they are walking on the boardwalk, a sudden storm blows in. Frightened by the thunder, Zip disappears into the crowd.
  Pint-sized Ben tries to search for Zip, but all he sees are knees! Right knees, left knees, knees with sandy patches. Fat knees, bony knees, knees with bumps and scratches. Ben finds a higher spot. Now all he sees are bellies! He climbs the highest lookout on the beach– the lifeguard stand – and sees that the rain has chased everyone from the beach! Now how will Ben find Zip?
  A tribute to friends, boardwalks, beaches, and summer, Ben & Zip will keep readers guessing until the very end… when two short friends are reunited.
