Summary: The book is about a little girl who spends time with her grandparents. she then while spending time with them realizes many different views of ways to look out the kitchen window. She realizes it is not only a way to look out but a way to see into other things that happen and go on in the world. It is a very sweet book and would be a great read between young children and their families. I would use this book in my class as  a interesting activity to be read on Grandparent's day in class. This book could also be used as independent reading material.
