Everybody needs a rock -- at least that's the way this particular rock hound feels about it in presenting her own highly individualistic rules for finding just the right rock for you. - Byrd Baylor, Peter Parnall (Illustrator)
Although Written for Children (ages 4-8) Adults may find it nostalgic and appreciate the sensativity of the words and illustrations as well as the message of our interconnected world.

Baylor provides ten rules for finding a rock. "Not just any rock, Baylor is careful to note, but 'a special rock that you find yourself and keep as long as you can--maybe forever.' . . . As fresh as Baylor's concept are Parnall's striking illustrations."--"School Library Journal," starred review.
