Granny has a secret: big changes aren't so scary when we take comfort in the time it takes to embrace them. When her granddaughter is missing her old home, Granny teaches her a secret. The flower buds aren't quite open, but they will be soon: they're in the space between, and that time is a gift to treasure.

Just like the flowers will soon bloom, in time she will feel at home. But Granny's in the space between too . . . and she might need a little help to come out on the other side.
