A Boulder For Sam

By Dr. Joe Forrester

"A Boulder for Sam" is a heartwarming, inspiring story about determination, friendship, and the joy of trying hard. When young Sam stumbles upon a legendary climb called Midnight Lightning deep in the forest, she's captivated-but the boulder is too hard for her to climb. Instead of giving up, Sam begins to train, learning from friends and growing stronger in both body and mind. With training and persistence, she prepares for the day she'll return. When that moment finally comes, Sam gives it everything she has-and reaches the top. But the real triumph isn't just the climb-it's who she became along the way. With beautiful illustrations and a quiet nod to one of the most iconic climbs in Yosemite National Park, this story encourages kids to face challenges with grit and joy. Just as Sam learns: every big boulder is an opportunity to try hard, grow, and begin again.
