Otter has a big rock collection that he just can’t let go of. When a storm comes, he drifts out to sea and loses some of his rocks. With the help of a new friend Otter slowly makes it back home, realizing it's not necessary to keep holding on to all of the rocks.

A gentle story about learning to let go and accept help, paired with beautiful collage and mixed-media illustrations.
