✨ About the Book

What would you think if you discovered your grandparents are more interesting than you believed?

“A heartwarming story about how the people in our lives can be far more fascinating than we ever imagined.”

A young boy believes that spending the summer holidays at his grandparents’ house is boring—nothing ever happens, and there’s nothing interesting about them. But everything changes when he discovers a suitcase in the attic filled with mysterious objects.

The photographs and mementos reveal the story of two incredible people who lived exciting adventures, wore fascinating outfits, and explored faraway places.
But… who are these people? Perhaps his grandparents have the answer.
