Description: Hardly a day passes without Trille and Lena inventing some kind of adventure that often ends in trouble. Whether it s coaxing a cow onto a boat or sledding down the steepest and iciest hill with a chicken, there is always a thrill? ?and sometimes an injury? ?to be had. Trille loves to share everything with Lena, even Auntie Granny s waffles. But when Lena has to move away and Auntie Granny leaves the world, it sometimes seems like nothing will ever be right again. The warmth of friendship and the support of family suffuse this lightly illustrated novel, proving that when times are tough, a little taste of sweetness can make all the difference.

Young Trille struggles with the fear that nothing will ever be right again when his best friend moves and his waffle-making Auntie Granny passes away.
