About Miggy and the Time Machine: A Story About Love That Never Leaves by Sita Rani Miles
When Miggy loses his beloved Grandma Terry, he builds a cardboard time machine to bring her back.
But instead of rewinding time, Miggy discovers something even more powerful — how love lives on through memories, art, and a warm breeze that smells of lavender.
Miggy and the Time Machine is a gentle, beautifully illustrated picture book about love, loss, and how the people we miss never truly leave us. Inspired by a real family story, this heartwarming tale supports young readers as they navigate grief and learn to hold on — and let go — all at once.
