Originally produced by Players Theatre of Columbus, Ohio, and subsequently by ArtReach Touring Theatre of Cincinnati, Ohio.
Drama with music. By Kathryn Schultz Miller.

Cast: 1m., 1w., 1 boy, 1 girl. This is a heartwarming story of a grandfather's extraordinary gift of life. Many turn-of-the-20th-century songs such as "By the Light of the Silvery Moon" and "The Good Old Summer Time" enhance the magic.

Set on an Ohio farm, the play introduces two children; William Henry and his tomboy cousin, Ally. They learn about friendship and maturity as Grandpa's shining moment becomes clear with a bittersweet ending.
