After a fire breaks out in Grandma Carol’s living room, Leo’s Mom and Dad decide to hire a caregiver to live with her. Leo is no longer allowed to spend as much time with her as he wants to. But Carol, who has always been a free spirit, is not willing to lose her independence: she plays tricks, hides, and even goes so far as to run away from her caregiver. Then, one night, a thief with extra-long arms arrives at Grandma’s apartment building... Tzofit Ofengenden’s comic novel, told from Leo’s innocent but sharp-eyed point of view, is well-observed and cleverly plotted, with wonderfully surreal touches.
