“Do you love me one or two?”

“I love you three.”

Kimmie was only seven when she lost her grandma, Suga Bugga. Five years later, twelve-year-old Kimmie is still carrying a heart that feels too heavy to hold.

Then one night, she wraps herself in Grandma’s old quilt, and the room begins to spin...

Kimmie wakes up somewhere impossible: Yamtasticville, a candy-sweet world full of gummy bears, giant lollipops, and gingerbread houses. And waiting there with open arms is the one person she never thought she’d see again.

But something in Yamtasticville is starting to go wrong.

A heartwarming illustrated middle-grade adventure (ages 7–12) about grief, empathy, and the love that stays with us always and forever. Includes discussion questions and grief resources for families.
