In The Perfect Rock, three otters learn about sharing during a significant day in their lives. Their journey teaches valuable lessons about family and cooperation.
In The Perfect Rock, three young otters embark on an unforgettable adventure that teaches them the importance of sharing. Ollie, Bea, and Ula are inseparable, enjoying playful days filled with splashing in the waves, indulging in delicious shellfish feasts, and snuggling together at night. However, a significant milestone awaits them: the day they must each find their perfect pebble, a special rock strong enough to crack open shells and provide for themselves.
As the otters search for their ideal rock, excitement turns to tension when they discover the best one. This pivotal moment challenges their bond, as they grapple with the question of who gets to keep the coveted pebble. Through their experiences, the story beautifully illustrates sibling dynamics, family love, and the sometimes difficult lessons about sharing. The Perfect Rock is more than just a story; it’s a gentle guide for families to engage in meaningful conversations about cooperation and understanding.
Sarah Noble's stunning illustrations enhance the narrative, bringing the vibrant underwater world of sea otters to life. This picture book is perfect for cozy bedtime reading, offering a delightful blend of adventure and valuable life lessons that resonate with both children and parents alike. The Perfect Rock invites families to share not only the story but also the important values of love and sharing that can strengthen their bonds.
The Perfect Rock- with its incredible visuals and gentle, flowing story- is beautiful and perfect in every way. My own little family of otters absolutely loved this book. * David Litchfield, author of The Bear and The Piano *
A wonderfully vibrant and gripping Otter adventure, filled with an abundance of playful energy. -- Lucy Morris, author of The Song for Everyone
Rendered in loose strokes of blues, greens, violets, and pinks, lively illustrations capture the luminosity and fluidity of the sea as well as the playfulness of the sleek little otters in close-ups, vignettes, and double-page spreads, while the perfect rock proves an ideal metaphor for the strength, comfort, and love of family. * Kirkus Reviews *
