Our Review
This gentle intergenerational story explores the tender relationship between a grandmother and granddaughter through their cherished teatime ritual. Young readers will recognize the comforting predictability of their shared routine—selecting special cups, brewing tea, and exchanging stories—while noticing subtle changes as Grandma begins forgetting small details. The narrative handles memory changes with remarkable sensitivity, showing how love adapts when memories fade, making complex family dynamics accessible through concrete, familiar moments.
What distinguishes this picture book is its focus on how children can actively participate in caregiving rather than merely observing adult concerns. The granddaughter's creative solution to help her grandmother remember their special time together demonstrates agency and compassion, providing young readers with a positive model for navigating similar family experiences. The story's quiet strength lies in its affirmation that connection persists beyond memory, offering both reassurance and practical understanding for families facing cognitive changes in loved ones.
