Summary:
A story about the special relationship between a child and his grandmother and the time they spend looking for worms for the garden.
The special relationship between a child and his grandmother is depicted in this sumptuous book by an award-winning team.

Poet Jordan Scott and illustrator Sydney Smith's previous collaboration, I Talk Like a River, which received a Boston Globe-Horn Book Award expored a cherished memory shared between a father and son. In their new book, they turn that same wistful appreciation to the bond between a boy and his grandmother.
