This will make a fun read aloud, especially when students talk about rocks, land formations. I liked that the author includes information in the backmatter that goes along with the story. There is also an author's note that gives further information about erosion on Mt. Rushmore.

A silly book about a rock that goes out to make a difference. There are a lot of dad level rocks jokes throughout the book that little kids might not get. It is still a very funny read and would be good read aloud during a rock unit.

Rocky, the pebble, just wants to do something meaningful that will impact the world like the rest of his family, such as the Rock of Gibraltar and Mount Etna, have done. Rocky goes on adventure to be a part of his relatives' rock formations so he can be a part of them and feel special by association. However, he keeps getting misplaced once he arrives at the structures and loses pieces of himself in the process. Because of his small size he is able to do a miraculous thing and save the day. In addition to being a great introduction to geology, this book shows how someone small and seemingly insignificant can make a big impact in the world and will inspire children to strive to make a difference in the world no matter how young they are.
I was given an ARC of this book from the publisher in return for an honest review.
