If all the world were memories,

the past would be rooms I could visit

and in each room would be my grandad.

Simple, poignant, story of a young girl and her relationship with her aging grandfather.

The process of dealing with the immediate aftermath of a death is dealt with (tidying up, finding treasures) and the wishful thinking and reminiscing after a death. Grandad leaves her a legacy — both physical (a new notebook) and emotional.

Ages: 3 to 5 years old / 5 to 7 years old.
