The brilliant follow-up to the Caldecott Honor-winning and New York
Times bestselling picture book They All Saw a Cat by Brendan
Wenzel!
A Stone Sat Still tells the story of a seemingly ordinary rock--but
to the animals that use it, it is a resting place, a kitchen, a safe
haven...even an entire world.
This is a gorgeous exploration of perspective, perception, and the
passage of time, with an underlying environmental message that is timely
and poignant.
- Filled with stunning illustrations in cut paper, pencil, collage, and
paint
- Soothing rhythms invite reading aloud and bedtime snuggles
- Introduces concepts like color, size, function, and time in a way that
is easily understandable and teachable for children
With a rhythmic, calming narrative about the stone and its place in
the world--and the changing environment--A Stone Sat Still proves
Brendan Wenzel's mastery of the picture book form.
This modern children's classic will enchant readers in preschool and
kindergarten, as well as the adults that read with them.
- A wonderful gift for teachers, librarians, and educators who are
looking to teach difficult concepts like perspective and perception
- Perfect for parents and caregivers wanting to educate their kids about
the environment, nature, and animals
- Great for fans of I Want My Hat Back by Jon Klassen, The Very
Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle, and The Lorax by Dr. Seuss, as well
as Wenzel's previous books They All Saw a Cat and Hello Hello
