'How about a story? Spin us a yarn.'
Instantly, Phoebe Winterbottom came to mind.
'I could tell you an extensively strange story,' I warned. 'Oh,
good!' Gram said. 'Delicious!'
And that is how I happened to tell them about Phoebe, her disappearing
mother, and the lunatic.
In her own award-winning style, Sharon Creech intricately weaves together two tales, one funny, one bittersweet, to create a heartwarming, compelling, and utterly moving story of love, loss, and the complexity of human emotion.
