Join our narrator, The Grain of Dust on a fascinating journey around the planet to meet them. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003csize\u003e\"I don't want you to think that I'm boasting, but I do believe I'm one of the greatest travellers that ever was; and if anybody, living or dead, has ever gone through with more than I have I'd like to hear about it. Not that I've personally been in all the places or taken part in all the things I tell in this book-I don't mean to say that-but I do ask you to remember how long it is possible for a grain of dust to last, and how many other far-travelled and much-adventured dust grains it must meet and mix with in the course of its life. ...Finally, if what we call flesh and blood can think and talk, why not a grain of dust? In fact, what is flesh and blood but dust come back to life? Says the poet-and the poets know:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'The very dust that blows along the street Once whispered to its love that life is sweet.'\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYou see it's as likely a thing as could happen-this whole story.\"  \u003c\/size\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSummary by J.
