A stone is a story / written by Leslie Barnard Booth ; illustrated by Marc Martin.

Barnard Booth, Leslie, (author.). Martin, Marc, (illustrator.).

Summary:

"A stone is not just a stone. A stone is a story. Journey across history to see how one stone changes and transforms, from magma, oozing under Earth's crust, to sand ground down by a rushing river, to the heart of a mountain. Watch what happens when rain, ice, and wind mold this rock into something new, something you might even hold in your hand and imagine all that is left for the stone to become. Leslie Barnard Booth weaves captivating prose to answer one of kids' most curious questions, "where do rocks come from?", brought to colorful life by Marc Martin's stunning illustrations"-- Provided by publisher.
