When You Find the Right Rock

A marvelous exploration of the special relationship children find with the natural world, from poet Mary Lyn Ray and artist Felicita Sala. Somewhere, a rock is waiting for you. One just the right color for your windowsill, or just the right shape for drawing a face. Maybe it is a rock from the heart of a mountain that will remind you of how big you are inside, too.

Maybe it is a rock washed by the sea that knows all about the backs and forths and ups and downs of things. Maybe it is a small rock, just the right size to close your hand around and know that the rock is with you and it is just right. With lyrical prose and enchanting illustrations, this book celebrates the simple joy of finding something in nature that feels like it was meant just for you.
