What's the book about?

Max and Tiger go to the beach and suddenly shrink small enough to explore a huge sandcastle up close. Inside, they have an exciting adventure, surfing on a flip-flop and trying to escape a snappy crab. They must hurry to get away before a big bucket of water comes crashing down and washes everything away.
