Bookroo's summary

Noah's cherished mornings with Grandpa are disrupted when Grandpa forgets their beloved routines. As Grandma steps in, Noah searches for a way to rekindle their bond. Can music bridge the gap and restore their joyful mornings? Discover how love and creativity can find what seems lost in this touching tale of family and connection.

From the publisher

Every morning is beautiful when Noah visits his Grandparents. When Grandpa and Noah wake up, they take off singing and hardly stop: walking the dog, splashing through puddles, and eating French toast with cinnamon. But one summer Grandpa seems to have forgotten how to do the things they love. Does he even know who Noah is? Grandma steps in energetically, filling in as best she can. But it is Noah who finds the way back to something he can share with Grandpa. Something musical. Something that makes the morning beautiful again. This is a story about how love helps us find even what we think is lost.
