Cultural note from the author:

Grandparents often play a special role in a child’s life. My grandma always saved me from all sorts of trouble during my childhood. I remember thinking how “magical” my grandma was. Sakura’s grandma in this book is similar. Readers will have fun discovering how she deals with the melted chocolate that Sakura brought for her.
