The Hello, Goodbye Window (2006)

Told in her voice, her story is both a voyage of discovery and a celebration of the commonplace wonders that define childhood. The world for this little girl will soon grow larger and more complex but never more enchanting or deeply felt. It is also a love song devoted to that special relationship between grandparents and grandchild.

A girl visits her grandparents', where for her, the kitchen window is a special gateway. Everything important happens near it, through it, or beyond it.

Norton Juster is the author of the children's classic The Phantom Tollbooth and the mathematical romance The Dot and the Line. He is also an architect (retired), a teacher (retired), and a grandfather (just warming up), as well as a writer.
