One Drop, Endless Ripples

A treasured gift for every child's bookshelf and anyone who loves the earth.  

This poetic picture book will delight babies, toddlers, young children (and their adults) during reading time. A great book for inspiring play and imagination through poetic storytelling and nature.   

Your baby, toddler or young child will have limitless opportunities to explore with this picture book even after reading it multiple times. 

One Drop, Endless Ripples takes the reader through an uplifting journey of transformation and exploration in Jayshree Patel's debut children's book. This beautifully illustrated picture book, hand-painted by Alexandra McLellan, will inspire inquiry and wonder about nature. 

This poetic story was inspired by the melting ice that followed the Texas snowstorm in February 2021. The gorgeous illustrations takes the reader on a journey with One Drop through scenes that are influenced by both Texas and New Zealand, reflecting the connection that both the author and the illustrator have with both places.
