About this ebook

From award-winning author Heather Smith, a heartwarming story about loss - and remembering. When Granny dies, a child and their family remember her through the things she left behind: a tuba for the father, a locket for the mother, a microscope for the sister and records for the brother. To the main character, though, Granny left something different: a world of adventure, that they visit with their memories. Through imaginative play with items that belonged to Granny, the child travels near and far. And Granny is right beside them, along for the ride. Children, and grown-ups, will be moved by the message - our loved ones can stay close, as long as we can imagine them.
