Grandpa Alan’s Sugar Shack ©22
by Alan Page; Kamie Page
Tap, tap, tap. Drip, drip, drip.”What’s that sound, Grandpa?” ”It’s the sap running
from the maples.” Here is the gentle story of a granddaughter discovering one
of the great joys of her grandfather’s youth, spring in the north woods when the
maple trees are bursting with sap. Together, grandfather and granddaughter
make their way out into the chilly pre-dawn woods to find and tap maple trees,
hang buckets, and collect sap. And then patiently (or not!), they wait for the sap
to boil into syrup back at the sugar shack. They wait until . . . at last! The first
sweet taste of amber, sticky goodness is ready.

the quiet child no one notices.
