Read by Joan Walker.
Elsa is seven years old and different. Her grandmother is seventy-seven years old and crazy, standing-on-the-balcony-firing-paintball-guns-at-men-who-want-to-talk-about-Jesus-crazy. She is also Elsa's best, and only, friend. At night Elsa takes refuge in her grandmother's stories, in the Land of Almost-Awake and the Kingdom of Miamas where everybody is different and nobody needs to be normal.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

A wonderful story of child & grandmother- the love & lessons shared. submitted by LVDS on June 29, 2021, 3:15pm Written by the same author of "A Man Called OVE" (which I liked more) yet this is endearing too. Also set in Sweden in an apartment community. Told from the granddaughter's perspective with quirky characters coming together.
