This is the poignant tale of a woman who resides in a nursing home, and who seems to live more in a worldof memories than here in the present. Although Miss Olivia is unable to respond, and their presence often seems to go unnoticed, daughter Angel and great-grandson Troy know better. Anything from a beautiful sunset to the mention of her porch swing - Troy's favorite place - can take her back into her past, from when she was just a little girl out on the farm with her papa, to a recent birthday shared with her daughter.

Laminack treats this sensitive topic with care, giving voice to the often silent tragedy of watching a loved one slip out of the present and into the past. Bergum's delicate watercolors also give soft expression to the love that holds a family together during difficult times.
