Grace is a little girl; Phyllis is the old lady next door. Phyllis lives alone and her memory is fading, but that doesn't stop Grace from liking her. They find that, despite the gap in their ages, they have much in common and a moving and enduring friendship is born.
This is a deeply touching story for all the family of how a little girl befriends her elderly neighbour who has dementia, and the sensitive and engaging illustrations are beautifully observed.
