Grandma's Gloves

Grandma's Gloves
Written by Cecil Castellucci; Illustrated by Julia Denos

Grandma loves her flowers and is always on her knees — talking to her roses or laughing with her birds of paradise. Her “most special flower of all” is her granddaughter with whom she spends many precious moments. One day Grandma falls ill and soon passes away, leaving her beloved garden and gardening gloves behind. It’s now the granddaugther’s turn to pass along the knowledge her grandmother bestowed upon her.
