Reviews
Well-written and features several lyrical passages. The text also makes use of a broad vocabulary, with novel words seamlessly integrated into the narrative. Young readers will be able to intuitively decipher the meaning of words that are new to them...Unique in concept and pleasing., The idea that two very different types of people can operate in harmony is relevant and hopeful, in these times. Children need to hear stories like this one.

Synopsis
Somewhere off the coast and around the corner there are two islands. One island is made mostly of stones and the other mainly of sand, and that's where the problem began. Young Nye doesn't understand why the people on her Island of Sand work so hard to build beautiful sandcastles every day if they are destined to be ruined by the stones catapulted over by the people of the Island of Stones every evening. When she asks "Why?" all she ever hears in response is "Because." As years go by, Nye realizes that the Because is starting to make sense to her and this makes her angry. And an angry Nye decides to take action. Through this story about injustice and challenging the status quo, readers will be inspired to think deeply about why and how we can bring about change in the world., Key Selling Points In this book, a young girl challenges the status quo and takes a stand against injustice in her community. Nye, Sand and Stones shows usthat it's okay to be angry, to yell, to take up space and use your voice when something doesn't feel right. This book will encourage readers to think critically about the world around them. The author was inspired to write the book because of the #metoo movement and the women's rights marches around the world. The protagonist was written to inspire girls to listen to their intuition and stand up to protect themselves. The illustrator is a two-time finalist of the Governor General's Award for Children's Literature for The Good Book and Rosalie entre chien et chat. Free Teacher Resources including a word search and project ideas available for download at orcabook.com., A young girl challenges destructive behavior from the citizens of an island of stones that the rest of her community on an island of sand has been accepting since the beginning of time.
