From the creator and presenter of Taskmaster comes a beautifully told story of a young boy's connection with his grandpa - and a mystery that may come between them. "Charming and funny and uplifting. I loved it." Greg James "As delightful as a bucket full of beachcombed treasures." Thomas Taylor Trader and his grandpa have combed the beach of Bognor Regis for as long as he can remember, and every time they find a beautiful or special stone, it's added to the treasure collection. But when Trader finds a particularly special pebble, he stumbles on a secret that was supposed to be kept for ever... Can Trader and his new friend Charlotte unravel the mystery of this treasure, and return it to its rightful home?
11yr old Trader goes on a timeless, charming, beach-based adventure bursting with mystery, sausages, and brand new friends.
What if you found a really, really special pebble on the beach? What if it was magic? (Even though magic isn't real.) What if it helped you scare off some bullies, make a new friend, and get your grandad all excited again! Wouldn't that be the best thing to find on the beach?
Trader is almost eleven years old, knows everything there is to know about the stones on his favourite beach, and finds that very special pebble. It changes everything! There's adventure, friendship, a mystery to solve, and an injustice to make right.
The Last Pebble is charming, gentle, and warm - full of little bits of delightful humour and touching melancholy.... Read Full Review
