Ten-year-old Matthew longs to escape from his family. But when he finds a blue marble and winds up in an orphanage in 1946, getting what he wished is not so fun. A cruel supervisor mistreats the boys and polio paralyzes a friend. While learning to play marbles, he also learns about trusting God. Can the blue marble help him to win the National Marble Tournament? And will he ever find his family again?
