Description
The re-issue of this strong-selling gift book (a companion to 41 Uses for a Grandma) will get a smile of recognition from both grandfathers and grandkids. From dance partner to handyman, the fun and functions of grandfathers are inventively explored. Some of the uses are straightforward, like the arms-circled-out-in-front "ball hoop." Other entries, such as grandpas' "uses" as entertainment center, butler, and mediator, supply kids with a fresh perspective. At the end, it all adds up to grandpa being a wonderful friend.
Author Biography
To write this book, Harriet Ziefert did first-hand research and drew on fond memories of her experiences with her own grandparents. Ms. Ziefert is a devoted grandmother and step-grandmother, and the acclaimed author of hundreds of children's books. And while she dedicated this book to her beloved husband and co-grandparent, she did also pen ..".Uses for a Grandma" to include one additional "use." ☺ The author lives in South Orange, NJ.
Reviews"Don't be surprised when little ones demand to take Grandma and Grandpa through these books, page by charming page. These books break the mold, reminding us that grandparents make wonderful e-pals, yoga instructors, and sports fans. They're a delightful bridge between the generations, a terrific catalyst for a relationship that can be as important as the one kids have with [parents]."--"Cricket "magazine
