YA The Boy On Cinnamon Street (2012) - Plot & Excerpts
“He’s very adaptive for his age. Most seniors resist new hobbies. It’s all in your attitude,” Grandma says, doing a string of windmill stretches in the kitchen. In the living room, Grandpa has these old photographs strewn across the coffee table. He’s got these packages of sparkles and sprinkles and different colored pens to use for emphasis. I think Grandpa is doing this just to make Grandma happy. He’ll do anything to make Grandma happy. The only thing he won’t do is buy himself new clothes. Grandma says he would staple up the holes in his pants and keep using them if she didn’t step in. Once she tried to throw out a pair of million-year-old pajamas, but Grandpa found them in the condo Dumpster in the courtyard, and can you believe he pulled them out and kept wearing them? Finally, Grandma got rid of them by leaving them on the roof of the car when we were going to a local Laundromat cause our dryer was broken. We think they flew off somewhere around the intersection of Route 9 and Pottsboro Avenue.
