A new-age story of grit and perseverance, with a wild twist ending.
One day, while Isaac was walking to the beach, he noticed a boulder was blocking his way! Well-intentioned, Isaac tries to set things right and help the boulder return home…but it doesn't exactly go as planned.

"My kids don't often sit still for stories (2 & 4) but they were both sucked into Isaac from start to finish. They were on the edge of their seats waiting to see if Isaac would conquer the boulder in his path, then the end broke the tension and they both laughed and repeated what happened. I love when something is silly and it translates for the kids without explanation."
Goodreads 5-Star Review
"I love this picture book a lot, especially the unexpected ending which is hilarious. It is a sweet story of perseverance and the art is extremely cute. For sure, the story will interest young readers : suspense and denouement will keep them focused until the last page."
