Everybody Needs a Rock |
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.
媒体推荐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.
作者简介Byrd Baylor lives and writes in Arizona, presenting images of the Southwest and an intense connection between the land and the people. Her prose illustrates vividly the value of simplicity, the natural world, and the balance of life within it.

This book has beautiful artwork (amazing line drawings) and neat words. But its ideas apply to more than just rocks. There's something in it about the rock search being a very personal thing, and I found that applied as much to househunting as rock hunting. Get it for anyone you love.
Interesting story line, ordered as kindle book and read from IPAD to group of children in co-op. Read reviews that said paperback was small so opted for Kindle version. Pictures more abstract and, as might be expected, hard for group of children to view on Kindle. Story line interesting. Kept children's interest for class time, but not necessary keepsake book that children may want to have re-read. Quite fascinating to read reviewers' comments on Amazing regarding some adult readers who adopted the "rules for finding a rock" to other aspects of their life.
I loved this book as a kid, and now find it a great gift item.
Perfect for any kid who really digs rocks, and any kid with a vivid imagination about nature.
Give it to the extraordinary preschool or elementary school teacher who loves to get the kids outside and learning about nature.
Makes a great gift for a new geology major, earth sciences major, geosciences major, or environmental sciences major. Or, a graduation gift for a geology major or someone getting their Masters' degree in the geosciences.
A lovely gift for any earth sciences teacher's or geologist's kids.
Worth looking at for anyone interested in illustration.
Perfect for any special ceremony involving stones. We attended a first birthday party where everyone was asked to bring a stone and to say some wishes for the baby. We also gave this book.
A very great book. Arrived quickly and in good condition. I personally found some of the illustrations a bit on the creepy side. But ince you get past that and take a look at them as art work, they are hniquely beautiful. This was a present for my friend that is studying to be a geologist, and she said it was her favorite present she had received for Christmas.
