On the steps of her brownstone, Meggi Beth watches a springtime dawn accompanied by her trusty dog.
Along comes an older gentleman needing to sit a spell. As he begins talking about his life stories, Meggi Beth listens intently and the whole world opens to her like the puzzling mosaic of architectural artwork across the street.
With this new experience, a multigenerational friendship begins.
This is in Book Two about Meggi Beth. It follows, WILL YOU HOLD MY STORY? also by Kathy Joy, and emphasizes the comfort children and adults and dogs can offer one another just by being together and taking a moment to listen.
