I think the story was cute, sharing the forever love of an elderly couple. I didn’t quite understand the relationship or role of the child to the couple. It felt like some plot points were missing or not clear. I mostly loved the book for the sweet love this couple shared and how inspiring it is.!

It’s a touching story about a senior couple. Illustrations are beautiful like a movie.
