Information
Beloved author Alison Lester's Magic Beach is an ongoing bestseller, continuously in print for 35 years, with sales of over 500,000 copies in Australia and New Zealand. It remains one of Australia’s most popular and celebrated illustrated children’s books. Now a new family film is coming to cinemas in the summer school holidays - January 16 nationwide.
Directed by Robert Connolly (Paper Planes), this big screen adaptation is an exciting mix of live action and animation, and perfect family viewing for the Australian summer.
After reading the iconic book by Alison Lester, nine children and a dog find themselves on the famous Magic Beach. They explore caves, build giant sandcastles, poke around rock pools and converse with sea creatures. This is where their animated imaginations begin…
Magic Beach is a story of wonder inspired by the everyday, it thrills children because they see themselves in the story. For their parents and carers, it is a joyful reminder of the power and connection of imagination. Just as Paper Planes inspired thousands of children to fold pieces of paper to make their own planes, MAGIC BEACH will encourage children to draw, make, animate their own imaginative stories.
