Product Overview

A best-selling author and illustrator pay tribute to the power of language and intergenerational bonds.

George Baker and Harry dont seem the likeliest of friends. Yet, sitting side by side on Georges porch, waiting for the school bus to come, the two have plenty in common, this hundred-year-old musician with the crookedy fingers going tappidy on his knees and the young schoolboy whose shoelaces always need tying. Theyre both learning to read, which is hard but whats easy is the warm friendship they share. In an inspired pairing, a best-selling author and illustrator pay tribute to the power of language and intergenerational bonds.
