This Rock is Mine – Alice McKinley
Joining us for our Summer Reading Challenge event this year is picture-book illustrator Alice McKinley with This Rock is Mine.
Alice will read the heartwarming tale about a quarrel between two hilariously stubborn frogs and a rock they are both claiming to be theirs, before live drawing and teaching kids (and adults alike) to draw their own amphibian friend.
Suitable for children aged 3 – 7 years.
