Synopses & Reviews
On a rainy-day treasure hunt, young Annie discovers her connection to a bit of old wedding lace, the snapshot of a smiling war hero, and the purple hair ribbon once worn by an aunt with yellow beehive hair and a talent for mixing up "magical beauty creams." Together with her grandma, Annie finds a way to link these and other things-letters, a dusty rose bouquet, a glamorous silver framed photo-with all the funny, sad, silly, wonderful stories that helped make her, and her family, who they are today.
Like hearing all your best family stories shared round the dinner table, Deborah Blumenthal and Mary GrandPr offer this spectacularly illustrated, joyously tender tribute to families-as they are, as they have been, and as they are ever in the process of becoming.
