Life gives everyone challenges and there are many ways to over come the difficult ones. Children seem to find the easiest way with a little thought, a moment of quiet and the problem is solved. During a day of running errands with her granddaughter, Cathleen A. Gray had the idea to write a book so that they could remember the fun they had despite the multiple episodes of Bubble Gum removal. The day ends barefoot at the library, trying to escape any more Bubble Gum on her granddaughter's shoe.
