Herman feels he is the luckiest boy in the world.
He has a beautiful island home to explore, friends to play with and now a special new treasure for his collection. What more could a boy want?

The story is set thousands of years ago on the small and beautiful Channel Island of Herm, where there is evidence of Neolithic man.

Review:

This gentle seaside story is aimed at three- to six-year-olds and is a theme that will no doubt ring true with every parent... As well as giving children an appreciation for natural things Herman's Stone is also a charming tale about play and getting on with friends... Lizzie Mee's vibrant watercolour paintings perfectly match the innocent and natural tone of the book, and her nebulous, flowing style mirrors the peaceful atmosphere of the island. In one illustration you can almost hear the cry of the seagull flying in the air and the waves of the ocean - she's captured real movement there.
