​THIS is a very unusual book. Plunger, the toilet kind, wants to be a vase. Living life as  a plunger is just OK, but it has bigger dreams, better ones. Somehow plunger finds a way to become a vase. You’ll have to read to find out how, and it inspires everything in the house to change jobs. The BIG theme in this book—doing the job you’re meant to do; not the job others assign you.
