About these stories
The people closest to the reader, at the hour closest to sleep. A grandmother folding paper cranes. A baker whose secret ingredient is patience. A little one pressing an ear to the bump, waiting for a baby who is not here yet. The eldest child who always goes first. The invisible string between a child and a parent who is away. An adopted child learning that they were always meant to land right here.
The shorter ones — Hands, Feet, Faces, Families, Helpers — are for four- and five-year-olds; the rest for three to six. All of them are the kind of story that ends in a hug.
