THE SANDCASTLE CONTEST is two stories that got stuck together. One story was made up in 1992 for my daughter, Tyya, while we were on vacation on a little island in the Caribbean named Nevis. Tyya was 6 years old then, and she loved to build sandcastles. I made up a story where she built such a nice sandcastle that everybody thought it was a real castle. This story became one of my ‘beach’ stories, and I told it whenever I was telling stories on a beach or a sandbox. MEANWHILE, on my street live the Luttmans. Every summer they loaded up a camper with all sorts of stuff and them put 5 bicycles ON TOP of the camper and drove off down the street. I decided to make up a story about a family who took along EVERYTHING for a camping trip. MEANWHILE, I knew the Luttman kids were bugging their parents to get a dog, and I had made up lots of stories about kids who wanted a dog, but NONE of them were ever any good. ALL OF THE SUDDEN, these three things all got tangled into one story, and out came THE SANDCASTLE CONTEST.
