Sylvester and the Magic Pebble

Sylvester and the Magic Pebble

Category:

Description

A Childhood favorite that I adapted to a final night devotion with each child receiving their own ‘magic pebble’. Although Jeanie Kirkhope discouraged the story since the donkey was naked, I persisted.

Sylvester can’t believe his luck when he finds a magic pebble that can make wishes come true. But when a lion jumps out at him on his way home, Sylvester is shocked into making a wish that has unexpected consequences. After overcoming a series of obstacles, Sylvester is eventually reunited with his loving family. Illustrated with William Steig’s glowing pictures, this winner of the Caldecott Medal is beloved by children everywhere.
