Item Description
Stewart, a small raindrop, sips on his cloud and contemplates his life purpose. He begins asking others raindrops about their life purposes, and always gets the same response, ''To go to the great ocean!'' That isn't enough for Stewart. Eventually, in his frustration, Stewart takes a leap of faith and leave the cloud to find his purpose. He soon discovers that everyone, small and large, can accomplish great things.
