A girl and her grandfather bond over a shared love of words. On their weekly walks, Jill and Nonno love to play their clever word game. "Hummingbird," Jill says. "Sugar-drinker," Nonno says. "Seaplane," Jill says. "I do see a plane!" Nonno replies. But one day, Jill notices Nonno isn't interested in their game and is acting differently. Instead of silly words, he simply repeats the things that Jill says. When Jill asks her mother what's wrong, she says Nonno can't always find the words he's looking for. Is there anything Jill can do? A heartwarming story about making time for those we love and finding our own way of helping them - even when it seems like there's nothing we can do.
