'Simply delightful! An intelligent view through a young boy’s eyes, triumph and twists.' -Maxy AwardsLucas is thrilled when his grandmother comes to live with him. She’s his best friend after Justin from down the street. Only it turns out she’s dying, and no one-not his parents and certainly not Lucas-is ready to accept that. Then one night, his grandmother pulls out a memory, prompting a seemingly straightforward request-she wants to see her sister one last time.Simple enough, except Lucas’ mom insists a sister never existed, and besides, something else is clearly bothering his mom. If no one else believes his grandma, how can Lucas fulfill her dying wish? Stuck between two possible truths, he turns to his other grandmother, one estranged from the family. Maybe she can help him sort it all out, or maybe her presence will make everything worse.Lucas’ innocence brings a unique perspective to the very adult dilemmas and challenges swirling around him, creating a compelling and heart-warming story about the complexity and value of family as seen through the eyes of a seven-year-old boy.
