505 _aWhile younger students may appreciate the beautiful illustrations, the deeper themes of grief, time, and interconnectedness are better suited for slightly older children who can engage with abstract ideas and visual storytelling.
_gThe book supports key PYP concepts such as: Connection: Linking personal experiences to broader historical and natural cycles. Change: Exploring how things transform over time. Perspective: Encouraging students to interpret the story through their own lens. It also fosters transdisciplinary skills like critical thinking (interpreting visual narratives) and emotional literacy (processing feelings of loss).
520 8 _aa wordless picture book that tells a profound and visually stunning story. It begins with a young girl grieving the loss of her beloved dog, Sascha, as her family embarks on a summer vacation. While walking along the beach, she discovers a smooth stone, which becomes a turning point in her journey through grief. The story then expands to explore the stone's history, tracing its journey across millennia, civilizations, and natural transformations, ultimately connecting the personal loss of one child to the vast cycles of time and the interconnectedness of all things. This year's summer holiday will be very different for a young girl and her family without Sascha, the beloved family dog, along for the ride. But a walk along the beach to gather cool, polished stones becomes a brilliant turning point in the girl's grief. There, at the edge of a vast ocean beneath an infinite sky, she uncovers, alongside the reader, a profound and joyous truth.
