As the day passes, Grandmama patiently helps Joy discoverhow old things and old ways can bring joy to any heart."-- Publisher Description Winner of the 2024 CBC Librarian Favorites Award Joys Grandmama lives in an old house, on an old street, with old trees and all kinds of old things. And Joy already knows . . . theres no fun in that! When young Joy goes to spend the day with Grandmama, she struggles to find beauty in all the old things at Grandmamas house. None of it looks or smells quite the same as it does at home. But as the day passes, Grandmama patiently helps Joy discover how the old ways can bring joy to any heart. Whether its the swaying of stately trees, bubbles dancing in a sink filled with dishes, the sweet scents of a lovingly tended garden, or the memories found in a room packed with hats - if Joy opens her heart and mind, there is beauty to be found everywhere at Grandmamas house. Gorgeous, richly detailed illustrations capture the movement of Joys feelings of boredom and doubt to awe and appreciation for her Grandmamas attitude and way of life.
