Synopsis
Geddes’ story features this involved family elder sharing his innate abilities to rock a fussy baby to sleep, or make it laugh. Fun overnights at the Grandparents’ house often involve practical joker Grandpa, flicking the lights on and off while Grandma tells a bedtime story, showing the kids how to make homemade ice cream, or describing to the grandchildren the years when their own parents were young. Clearly the elder’s teachings and wisdom have made an impression on these youngsters, as they in turn are quick to apprise Grandpa of approaching danger near the book’s end, in order to remove him from harm’s way.
