Have you found a painted rock hiding in the local park or perhaps you paint rocks and leave them for others to find?

Mrs Trilla and the Painted Rock is a story about rocks and rock painting. When Mrs Trilla finds herself isolated in her quiet home after leading a busy community life, her simple collection of rocks brings back special memories. She misses her active life in the community and contact with her friends and very large family. Then one day, someone drops a rock for her to find and with it she finds so much more.

This story is for those who just love rocks like Mrs Trilla, for those who love painting and sharing rocks, for those who can’t walk past a real good rock, and for those who just love a good story.
