A young rock collector describes the many things to do with rocks. You can kick a rock around the block; skip rocks over water; drop them to appreciate the sounds they make (but be careful what’s underneath!); hunt for them (not all rocks are meant to be taken, but you can enjoy the ones that aren’t right where they are); sort the ones you find (“Should your tiny white rock go with other tiny rocks? With other white rocks? Or with other rocks that make you smile? ); study them; change them into something else, like a bridge, or a mosaic or a necklace; keep them as reminders of places you’ve been; and finally, share them with a friend, and then find more—together. There are other ideas for what you can do with a rock in this narrative accompanied by watercolor illustrations that show the young collector as white-skinned (with blue hair) and concluding with more about types of rocks, things to consider when colleting, and places to learn more.

What can you do with a rock?

You can skip them.

You can sort them.

Best of all, you can share them.

Rocks are simple, but the things you can do with them are endless. Rocks can build, sparkle, and tell a story. They can be memories. They can even be a little bit magic. This ode to curiosity and creative play from New York Times bestselling author Pat Zietlow Miller and acclaimed illustrator Katie Kath is bound to inspire.
