One Thursday Afternoon by Barbara DiLorenzo


Grandpa goes to pick up his granddaughter from school.  She's sad and unhappy just wants to go home.  But he has a picnic and paints and takes her to the country.  She doesn't want to talk and he says OK.

Flyaway Books and Net Galley let me read this book for review (thank you).  It has been published and you can get a copy now.

They had a practice at school for how to hide if a shooter appears. It scared her.  She thought her classroom was safe.  Grandpa tells her about his fears when he was in school. Soon she is feeling better.

She gives him a hug and they paint.  There may be danger but she knows what do now.  And Grandpa is going to take her on a picnic and paint again the next day!
