Beatrice loves her life with her Gram, her Papa, and her Dad.  When Papa gets a new job, however, Gram doesn’t move with them to the new city.  Beatrice is not sure that this new place will ever feel like home. But Gram sends Beatrice something to spark her creativity.

Moving - even in the middle of the school year - is common for students. Grady gives us a nice way to share the complexity of those feelings with all of your students and help all develop some empathy.
