For Katie, nothing compares to Thanksgiving at Grandma's. There are the aunts and uncles, whom Katie loves to see each year. But a cherished object is broken at dinner, and Katie blames herself for spoiling the day.
"As Katie bursts out crying, her grandmother quickly whisks her away to the guest room where she keeps her "memory cupboard," a special place full of beloved things that have become worn out or broken through the years. Each item has a story, and Grandma's loving reassurance comforts the child and allows her to see that things may get broken, but granddaughters are forever." -- School Library Journal
