For one little Ugandan boy, no wish is too big. But on a rainy day at his grandfather’s house, he is brought down to earth with a bump. Do adventures only happen in galaxies far away or can he find magic a little closer to home?
A touching story of a grandfather’s love for his grandson and the quiet pleasures of a rainy day.
