This is a picture book that has no words and it is about a boy and his discoveries on the beach

A little boy finds an old camera that washed up on shore and gets the pictures developed.  He finds some very interesting and fascinating pictures on the film, pictures of underwater worlds and such things as this.  He keeps the camera going by putting new film in the camera and takes a picture of himself holding the picture that is of a girl holding a picture.  This would be great to use as a writing prompt, the children could select one of the pictures that was on the camera and write their own story about it.  I LOVE LOVE this book!
