Authors' Comments:

I wrote this book to let other people know about our culture like herding sheep and losing some here and there. I chose this topic so it can relate to our history and also contain a part of our culture. I wrote about how a little girl experiences spending time with grandparents. Children commonly experience this today.

 

In the beginning, Ba doesn't like going to her grandparents' home. Eventually she enjoys all the time they've spent together. In the end, she realizes that they need her help. Throughout the book, Ba goes through many difficult experiences that she will overcome.
