About

When Sammy must spend weeks alone with his grandfather, he learns that the old man isn't quite as boring as he thought... When his parents leave for Detroit, Sammy is left alone with his out-of-touch grandfather in a dull, creaky house. All Sammy wants to do is run away to rejoin his folks. But Grandpa's world holds a few surprises, including a majestic crane found in the woods with a broken wing. Sammy finds himself seeing his grandfather's world through new, wild eyes. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Betsy Byars including rare images from the author's personal collection.
