Julia Eccleshare's comment:
Clever Lily! There’s nothing interesting for her to take for Show and Tell which won’t get broken so she takes in a stone. It looks just like any other stone. You can’t just bring a stone, her friends tell her but, Lily tells the class, this is a special stone. It can move. Importantly, Lily sets her stone out on display and everyone settles to down to watch it – carefully. And some even believe that it can move.
