This is a very deep book. It is not necessarily my kind of book but it had good intentions. The gift from the sea is actually a rock that a little boy finds on the beach. The story goes on to tell the history of the rock and how it got to where it is now. The rock had survived all the eras of history including when dinosaurs lived and the ice age. In essence, I think the story has a good purpose to expose children to those times in history. I am just not sure that a child would understand this purpose. The pictures are dark and appeared to be painted. I feel like this book wouldn't grab the attention of a child unlike some other picture books I have read. And with that... I have not much more to say about this one.
