Into the jar also goes the money Grandma saves whenever she gets a bargain at the market. There hasn’t been a comfortable place to sit in the apartment since a fire in their previous apartment burned everything to ＂charcoal and ashes.＂ Friends and neighbors brought furniture to their new apartment downstairs, but no one brought anything big or soft, or comfortable. Finally, the jar is full, the coins are rolled, and in the book’s crowning moment, mother, daughter, and Grandma search four different furniture stores, and after carefully trying several chairs, like Goldilocks, they find the chair they’ve been dreaming of at last. 小女孩和媽媽、外婆住在一間佈置簡單、家具簡少的小公寓裡，每天放學後小女孩會去媽媽工作的餐館打工，希望能多存一些錢，因為一場大火災將她們的家燒毀了，所有的東西都燒光光了，包括一張舊沙發。母女兩人和外婆最高興的事，就是數著大玻璃罐裡慢慢存下來的銅板，因為她們要重新買一張新沙發，一張漂亮、舒適，可以讓媽媽能好好休息的沙發。 本書深刻描寫出一個單親家庭的親密情感，同時亦道出遭逢變故及之後的心情和面對現實的勇氣，是一本最適合親子共讀的圖畫書。 -- Hosting provided by SoundOn
