And when he finds the secret room where Grandpop always disappears – a room so full of songbirds and plants that it’s almost pulled from the inside out. Genie thinks Grandpop must be the bravest guy he’s ever known, but he’s starting to notice that his grandfather never leaves the house – like in NEVER. How does he match his clothes? Know where to walk? Cooking with gas stove? Pour a glass of sweet tea without spilling it?

The second surprise comes when Genie discovers that their grandfather is blind. ![]() When two brothers decided to prove how brave they were.
