Aus dem Klappentext

When our granddaughter Davy Grace was five years old, her mother and father allowed her to spend a special week with her grandparents. Karolyn and I were elated. The week was great fun. But one experience is indelibly printed in my memory. Karolyn has a special drawer where she keeps stickers for the grandchildren. Davy Grace, of course, knew about this special drawer and asked her grandmother if she could have some stickers. Karolyn told her that she could have three; any three she chose.
An hour or two later, we began to see stickers all over the house. Davy Grace had taken the entire sheet of stickers and placed them randomly. Karolyn said to her, I thought I told you to take only three stickers, but you have taken the whole sheet.
Davy Grace stood in silence as her grandmother continued. You disobeyed Grandmother.
Tears cascaded down Davy Grace s face as she said, I need somebody to forgive me.
I shall never forget those words nor the pain which I saw in her young face. My tears joined her tears as I embraced her and said, Honey, all of us need somebody to forgive us.
