Emily loves to visit Grandma and Grandpa. Like most grandchildren, she is showered with affection and enjoys the freedom to do what she wants. But sadly, every visit comes to an end, leaving Emily longing for a way to feel close to her grandparents . . . until she can see them again. This gracefully illustrated story reinforces the loving bond between grandchildren and grandparents who cannot see each other as often as they would like. Through the eyes of Emily, children discover a magical kind of connection and learn to use their imagination, memory, and natural surroundings to feel close to their grandparents whether they are miles or countries apart. Makes a great gift for long distance grandchildren! Read about the author, illustrator, editor, and designer . . .

".... a wonderful book addressing the emotions that almost every child experiences when it is time to leave their grandparents' house."
- Reader Views
"Children ages 3 to 8, especially those who have grandparents or other relatives living some distance away, will appreciate this book. The book would likely be helpful for a child in a broken home where one parent lives a distance away or only has limited visitation rights."
