Yesterday I received a package from London, and in it was this:
Adorable! This is the advance reader edition; Grace Grows comes out in the UK next spring.
My daughter held this book and gazed at it a long time. It’s slightly more compact than US trade paperbacks, and she said it felt somehow perfect, in her hands. She suspected its dimensions might adhere to the Golden Ratio. Which she then explained to me, again. Because math + me = not so much.
Another cool thing: on the back cover it says, “A delightful love story–as sweet and moreish as apple pie–about learning to love and learning to let go.”
Moreish! I Googled it:
