The Grok of the Rock
The Grok Of The Rock is a light-hearted, whimsical children’s book about two main characters who each have lessons to learn. Harry is big and strong, while Sidney is smaller in stature and therefore feels a bit inferior to him. However, throughout the course of this beautifully illustrated and lyrical story, the author reveals situations in which Sidney’s size actually benefits the Groks, showing that things are not always what they seem.
The book teaches children how the underdog can succeed and how everyone in a community has a place, even if it isn’t obvious at first. It’s an imaginative story with themes of inclusion and self-acceptance that help build children’s self-esteem. The Grok Of The Rock is not only a spectacular book for young readers, but also a heartfelt story for parents alike.
