"When summer started, I got Grampa's stopwatch," a small child says. "I don't want his stopwatch. I want him." Grampa used to time everything. As the seasons come and go, the stopwatch becomes a cherished symbol of remembrance, and the child uses it to carry on Grampa's favorite pastimes and traditions. This is a perfect choice for fostering discussions with children about their emotions, particularly the feeling of loss. Carmen Mok's expressive and thoughtful illustrations employ a limited color palette to convey the character's emotional trajectory.
