Moreover, he is bitterly resented by the young girl who lives in the same boardinghouse. After all, he occupies her beloved granddad’s now-vacant room. How dare he think he can take that space? \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut try as she might, the girl cannot dislike him forever. Timmerman is kind, gentle, and soft-spoken to everyone, even the dog, who lets him untangle her matted coat. Despite herself, the girl becomes fond of him. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen rumors begin to fly, she tries not to listen. But it’s hard, especially when Timmerman is often seen late at night, wandering the streets with a shovel and sack over his shoulder. Is he stashing stolen goods? Burying dead cats? The girl takes a black eye for defending him at school. Even so, curiosity compels her to ask the question she knows she shouldn’t ask. Though Timmerman promises an explanation in time, he avoids a direct answer and disappears shortly after, leaving the girl to worry and wonder. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNot until spring is the answer to Timmerman’s nighttime walks beautifully presented, leaving the entire street with a living memory of Timmerman’s presence. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTimmerman Was Here\u003c\/b\u003e is a charming tale of mystery, perception, and the gift of friendship.","brand":"Tundra Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44220166930687,"sku":"9780887768903","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780887768903_s600x595.jpg?v=1782149461","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9780887768903","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
