Olinda loved visiting her grandparents every summer, and she looked forward to going this summer when school gets out. Her grandparents lived in a cabin in North Carolina, so it was a long trek from her home in Mississippi. They always had special treats like candy and popsicles for her and her brother. Her grandmother was quite the gourmet chef, too. They had the most delicious feasts when they went to visit. Every meal was something new and special.

Her grandfather loved to tell stories of his childhood. His father drove a produce truck and made deliveries all over their small town. As a young boy, Olinda's grandfather would ride in the back of the truck eating as much fruit as he could before his father's last run of the day. Listening to her grandfather's stories made Olinda's heart smile and her imagination soar. It also helped that he was quite funny and entertaining.

Read the excerpt from the story Moving in with My Brother:

I could hardly contain my excitement as I watched the clock count down to the final bell of the school year. In just two more days, my brother and I will be on the road to our grandparents' house for the summer. We love going to their house for so many reasons. As soon as we arrive, we sprint straight to the magic drawer and to the freezer. Inside the magic drawer lives every type of candy you can imagine, and inside the freezer, there is at least four different kinds of popsicles. I always feel like I'm in Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory! And let me just tell you, my grandma is the best cook. I love everything she makes, but my favorite is her vegetable pilaf. She always puts in just the right amount of spices, and it's packed with veggies, so I feel good about eating it.

My grandpa is fun to be with, too. He’s hilarious and tells the best stories. Our family meals are filled with him reliving his childhood as he rode on the back of his dad's produce truck. “You're up eating all my profits!” His dad would say because my grandpa ate so much of the fruit. My brother and I always laugh so hard when he imitates his father. I sure do wish we could have met him.

A. Olinda's brother doesn't like his grandparents.

B. Olinda's grandparents always give candy to her and her brother.

C. Olinda's grandfather tells funny stories.
