Michael's great-great-aunt Dew is a hundred years old. She keeps a box in her room filled with pennies--one for each year she has lived.

Michael's mother wants to get rid of the old box. But Michael knows that if Aunt Dew loses that old box, it will be like losing a part of her life.

He has to make his mother understand.
