When Jake's widowed mom breaks her leg just before Christmas, suddenly a grandfather Jake barely knows arrives to help care for him. Jake would be content staying with neighbor Mrs. Buttermark, but instead must develop a new relationship with both his paternal grandfather and Max, his grandfather's dog. The story has very little plot, rather it floats along on Jake's personal insights about his relationships and the meaning of family, relying on Jake's character development to drive the story.
1 of 5 stars. Recommended
