Sylvester and the Magic Pebble

Link to Amazon
Our main character, Sylvester the donkey, loves collecting interesting rocks. One day his rock collecting hobby brings him a magical rock that grants his wishes. When Sylvester happens upon a lion he tries to think of a creative wish that will help him escape peril. However, his wish to become a rock is the opposite of a good idea. The reader watches as Sylvester is unable to turn himself back into his normal form. Sylvester’s family and friends look for him, but unbeknownst to them he was there the whole time, as a rock. Will Sylvester rejoin his family and friends? Will he ever be normal again?
