About This Book
A parent might reach for this book when their child is constantly being asked about the future and starts to wonder if grown-ups still have dreams. This story flips the classic question, 'What do you want to be when you grow up?', when a little girl named Lily asks her grandmother.

This heartwarming book celebrates the power of imagination at any age and the special, loving bond between a grandparent and grandchild. It's a perfect, gentle read for ages 4-8 that encourages curiosity and shows that you are never too old to dream a new dream.
