Bookroo's summary

A child yearns for their distant grandparents, struggling with the separation. Through shared memories and the ever-present moon, they discover a way to feel connected despite the miles. How can love transcend distance and time? 'Here and There' explores the bonds that keep families close, even when they're far apart, through poetic storytelling and vivid imagery. Will the child find comfort in these connections?

From the publisher

For many children who live far away from their grandparents, it can be hard to understand why they can’t always be together. Patricia MacLachlan has created a bridge to close the distance by finding connections in memories and the moon they share. A beautiful, lyrical poem coupled with Bryan Collier’s rich collages, Here and There celebrates the importance of staying close to your family, even across thousands of miles.
