This book is factual.The pebble in my pocket is an amazing book i have read so far of all the other book i have read in my entire whole life .This book talks of the history of our earth . At the beginning of of the earth witch is about four hundred eighty million years ago there was volcanoes erupting and the lava spreading .The book is so interesting that it links to history witch is a bout time .The book talks about pebbles and more .There are different parts of the book like of the world getting flooded .Giving hippos water to give them a time to live during the past.The book is non fictional that there is a time line at the end of the book. There is a time about forests cites and more .Every time will remind you of the world .The world changes itself during the past until now .It does not change itself during the future.But from the past instead.

The Pebble in my Pocket was sort of telling you the story of how a giant rock turned into a miniature pebble. I definitely enjoyed it. I liked the history and seeing all the things that happened in the past. It was a great non-fiction book and I definitely recommend it !

I thought that this book was nice because It told me a lot of facts about pebbles. It interested me because it was about dinosaurs and periods. I would recommend this book to people who like history and dinosaurs.

This is a factual book about where pebbles come from. It had lots of little writing and was not funny but it was interesting. I love pebbles.

I liked reading about the history of our Earth, and my favourite bit was when humans first started.
