A Chip Off the Old Block by Jody Jensen Shaffer illustrated by Daniel Miyares*

Rocky wants to accomplish great feats like his family, but his parents remind him that he is only a pebble.  But he knows he destined to be a boulder!  So he sets out and visits his amazing family members who reside in the United States.
His family members comprise of: Aunt Etna, Uncle Gibraltar, Great-Grandma Half Dome, The Wave (his cousin), Dino, The Tower (his cousin) and Rushmore (his cousin). 
A fun ending!
**Lots of word play and puns.
I love that Ms. Shaffer explains more about each of this magnificent land forms and sites in the back of the book.
A fun book to incorporate when studying rocks/minerals.
*Highly recommend.
