According to Carrey, the 68-page volume is " a story about a wave named Roland who’s afraid that, one day, when he hits the beach, his life will be over. But when he gets deep, he’s struck by the notion that he’s not just a wave — he’s the whole big, wide ocean! It shows humanity’s interconnectedness through the metaphor of a wave in the ocean." The book is lavishly illustrated by award-winning artist and animator, R. C. Nason.
Carrey’s desire to inspire children is a primary impetus behind his creation of How Roland Rolls. "When children realize how ultimately safe and unlimited they are – how they’re part of something infinitely bigger and completely worthwhile — it’s a huge relief, and totally fulfilling." He hopes it to be true for the parents who are reading the book, as well.
Carrey has appeared in 33 feature length films, is one of the most successful actors in Hollywood and known for his humanitarian efforts.
