Granny Torrelli Makes Soup

Lucky twelve-year-old Rosie has Granny Torelli to take her problems to as life goes along. Granny always has a soup to make, a story to tell and perhaps some wisdom to offer in an unspoken way. This granny is one wise woman. Rosie struggles with her questions about her relationship with their neighbor, Bailey, who is nearly blind and reads Braille books. He and Rosie have always had a great friendship, and now they've reached the age when the friendship might blossom into something more, in spite of the new girl who has moved in, and not only into the house across the street.
