A child and beloved grandma bond over birds during the grandma's final days.

When Grandma gets sick and comes to stay at her grandchild's house, she brings her bird feeder. Grandma loves birds. And the child loves the time they spend together, drawing bird pictures and "talking about interesting things." Grandma's health declines, however. She moves to the hospice, where the child hangs the bird feeder outside her window. There, though the grandma's ability to interact diminishes over time, their love for each other never wavers.

Simple and deep, this quiet book speaks with empathy about the loss of a treasured grandparent, and with hope about the tomorrows—and the birds—that always come.
