Oliver the tortoise and his human, Ike, have been best friends for a very long time. In fact, they are both exactly eighty years old! They share a perfect, quiet life together, enjoying the slow pace of the garden, drinking cool water from the hose, and eating sweet slices of honeydew melon. But one day, Ike stops coming to the garden. Confused and missing his best friend, Oliver decides to embark on a long, slow journey across ten gardens to ask his mother why his human has disappeared. This deeply touching story gently explores the complicated feelings of loss and grief through the innocent eyes of a beloved pet. It is a warm, beautiful reminder to cherish the time we spend with our friends, family, and furry or shell-covered companions.
