The field feels too wide. The task feels too big. And no matter how hard he tries, Asher keeps falling behind.
When an old worker at the edge of the field shares a story about a giant and a small stone, Asher begins to see his work—and himself—differently.
Inspired by the biblical account in 1 Samuel 17, The Small Stone gently reimagines the story of David and Goliath through the eyes of a child who feels small in a very big world. With warm illustrations and thoughtful storytelling, this book explores perseverance, steady effort, and the quiet strength found in simply continuing.
A reminder for children that growth takes time—and that small, faithful steps matter more than speed.
Created for children, and the adults who read with them.
