Synopsis:
Sophie lives with Mama and Daddy and Grandpa, who spends his days by the window. Every day after school, it's Grandpa whom Sophie runs to.
"Here I am, Grandpa!"
"Ah, Sophie, how was your day?"
As Sophie and her grandpa talk, he asks her to find items he's "lost" throughout the day, guiding Sophie on a tour through his daily life and connecting their generations in this sweet, playful picture book from Richard Jackson, illustrated by Caldecott Medalist and Laura Ingalls Wilder Award winner Jerry Pinkney.

Jerry Pinkney (1939-2021) was the author and illustrator of more than one hundred books for young readers, including The Lion and the Mouse, for which he earned the Caldecott Medal.

The first children’s book artist elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, Pinkney retold such fairy tales as The Little Mermaid, Aesop’s Fables, and Little Red Riding Hood, and he illustrated many stories celebrating Black culture including Patricia C. McKissack’s Mirandy and Brother Wind, Julius Lester’s John Henry, and Richard Jackson’s In Plain Sight.
