Evra and her little brother, Pence, love their grandparents dearly. When Grammie and Grampy move into a retirement home, Evra and Pence worry they might be lonely there. They want to do something special to show their love—and, with help from their parents, they come up with the perfect idea: a surprise Grandparents Day party for all the grandparents at the retirement home!

Evra is so excited that she shares her plans at school, but a classmate named Gilbert teases her and cruelly rips up a picture she drew of her grandparents. Heartbroken, Evra turns to her mother for comfort. Instead of giving up, Evra chooses kindness and decides to invite Gilbert to the party, too. Touched by her generosity, Gilbert has a change of heart. The party is a huge success, bringing joy to Grammie, Grampy, and all the grandparents at the home. Even Gilbert discovers the magic of family as he finds some “adopted” grandparents of his own. Filled with warmth and heart, this touching story is perfect for families to read together.
