When sweet Lily and her playful bulldog, Miss Tillie, visit Grammee’s house, the kitchen fills with laughter and the smell of freshly baked cookies!

With a little patience and a lot of love, Miss Tillie discovers that staying back from the bustle is Grammee’s gentle way of protecting her and keeping her safe.

Lily was a little girl who seemed afraid of most things, from monsters in her room at night to loud, booming thunderstorms.
