Dear Hope-- Love, Grandma

Eight-year-old Hope's summer project for school was to become the pen pal of a senior citizen. When her assigned pen pal failed to write back, Hope's mother suggested she write to her grandmother. The result was a two-year correspondence. This book is a collection of the letters in which Hope's grandmother reveals the stories of her childhood, including the difficulties growing up in turn-of-the-century St. Louis. Ultimately, the correspondence teaches readers of all ages some wonderful and joyous insights about human hearts.
