Synopsis
A richly illustrated story about a girl, a grandma and a very long thread. This book is in the format of a children's story, with a message for all ages. It takes a beautifully subtle and reassuring look at the anxiety of moving to a new home and country. Based on the author's own family experiences of moving countries and leaving loved ones behind, the story celebrates the strong ties between grandchild and grandparent.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Age range 3 to 6We are moving to a new home, where the lakes freeze in winter. I am visiting my Grandma to say goodbye. The little girl in this story is moving with her parents to a new, colder country very far away.

As the girl makes a toy aeroplane and a map so that her Grandma can come and visit her in the new country, Grandma is busy making a coat to keep her Grandchild warm. Grandma says I mustn't worry that my new home is so very far away. She says that we two have the longest, strongest thread in the whole world, and she will surely fly all the way to find me.
