Description: After Grandpa passes away, his grandson finds a notebook labeled "What shall I do after this?" in his room. It's filled with Grandpa's plans for after his death: What he imagines the afterlife will be like, how he'd like to be reborn, how he'd like the family to remember him and so on. Reading the notebook makes the boy think about his grandfather's feelings, and about his own life and death.
