I pass crowds and city streets on the way to Grandma's house. I hear honks and toots and beeps on the way to Grandma's house. I watch lights and zooming trains. I spot birds and flying planes.


I see trucks and roadwork signs, and lots of boats with fishing lines. I count cows and woolly sheep on the way to Grandma's house, until I yawn and fall asleep on the way to Grandma's house.


But when I smell something sweet, I wave my hands - I know this street!


I love my Grandma's house!


A gorgeous account of one little girl's exciting journey to see her grandma - through the city and into the country and finally to her favourite place of all.
