Finding one’s place in the world is a daunting task. The Pebble is a sweet book that takes the reader on a journey of self-discovery. The main character is a pebble who is concerned and frustrated that he just doesn’t seem to be significant. He is not big enough to be part of a great wall. He is not small enough to be melted into glass for a stained glass window. He is not beautiful enough to be used for a piece of jewelry. Ultimately, he finds “his place” in the world is more wonderful than he ever could have imagined.
