“Grampy’s Chair”
Written by Rebecca Thomas
Illustrated by Coco Apunnguaq Lynge
Releases: October 2024

  • A heartwarming story about lifelong love and loss told from the perspective of a grandfather's favorite chair.

    Grampy's chair sits in the middle of his living room and always keeps an eye on My Love. The Chair is the perfect spot for My Love to learn to read, to play games with her friends, and The Chair is always extra soft when My Love is sick. As My Love grows up, The Chair sees Grampy grow older and My Love must care for him. One day Grampy is gone, and The Chair is moved to a space with only a few things it recognizes (and a few spiders too). Will it see My Love again?

    In this poignant story inspired by her own grandfather and his chair, Rebecca Thomas invites readers of all ages to explore love, grief, and the important moments in life that take place in our favorite spots. With lively illustrations from Coco A. Lynge and featuring a heartfelt author's note, Grampy's Chair takes the readers through loss, and how we can be found again by the ones we love.
