While our children were growing up, outdoor play and exploration were always a priority in our home. We would often go to a shallow creek where the three little girls, outfitted in their rubber boots, would slowly wade in ankle-high waters and immediately start searching. The girls would find treasures in the gentle flowing waters or along the creek bed. When a treasured rock was found, their natural curiosity with nature and imaginative play would cause wonder and excitement. The Special Rock children's book will spark a child's interests and will certainly create an educational experience for families to enjoy.
