Description
Simon goes to a home for the elderly as part of a school project and finds unexpected friendship with Mrs. Jessop who is over 80 but sharp as a tack. She is unhappy with her residence and Simon hates his new stepmother so when Mrs. Jessop makes the outrageous suggestion that they run away together to Wales, to a place she knows, Simon agrees. On their way, they have some strange adventures, have some amusing situations, and experience sadness as well.
