Bibliophile's Corner

The Rock from the Sky
by Jon Klassen

Goodreads Description:
Look up!

Turtle really likes standing in his favorite spot. He likes it so much that he asks his friend Armadillo to come over and stand in it, too. But now that Armadillo is standing in that spot, he has a bad feeling about it...



My Thoughts:
The Rock from the Sky is another quirky story by award-winning author/illustrator Jon Klassen! In this recently-released picture book Klassen weaves friendship and humor together to create a truly entertaining tale. At first glance it might seem like a meaningless collection of zany events, but I found it to be not only funny, but thought-provoking. Issues of fate and the future are not to be trifled with...at any age! I'd recommend this book to readers aged six and up.
