Publisher's Synopsis
Lucinda, "Sandie", Kraker was a midwestern woman with southern blood who could play the piano like no one else, who encouraged others through the power of her writing, and who raised her family through difficult circumstances and never lost her smile. Sandie Kraker died when her granddaughter, Hanna, was only ten years old. For the rest of her childhood, Hanna heard stories of her grandmother's life and character. This book is a collection of Hanna's memories of her grandma and letters that include what she would tell her grandma if she were still alive. This book is a testament to the character of Sandie and how she is woman worth writing to and about, and how sometimes the most ordinary stories can be the most extraordinary.
