This is a lively, emotionally resonant celebration of rocks as well as humans' ways of connecting with and learning about the natural world. - Publishers Weekly The story's opening draws readers right into the world of rock appreciation... The child's adventures with rocks and making friends form a visual story that complements the conversational, conspiratorial text. By the end, the story widens its scope to sweet life lessons as it turns effortlessly toward friendship and the wisdom transferable from rock discovery to friend discovery. A delightful invitation. - Kirkus Reviews
