The ink had faded
But, much to Tommy’s dismay, the ink had faded. He couldn’t understand a single word written on the pages! Some of the images remained visible, but he had no idea what they signified. Tommy had no idea what to do with the book because he couldn’t read it…
A family heirloom
When he asked his grandmother about the book, she couldn’t help him. She stated that she didn’t know what it was either; it had been passed down through her family from generation to generation, and she was more than pleased to pass it on to Tommy now.
