The Grandpa Book

written and illustrated by Todd Parr
These companion
books about grandparents explore all the different kinds of grandmas
and
grandpas there are. In The Grandma Book,
some grandmas have lots of cats. Some have lots of purses. Some
dance, some hula hoop, etc... In The Grandpa Book,
some grandpas collect things, some ride in wheelchairs,
some put extra marshmallows in
your hot chocolate, etc...
Both feature Parr's
trademark
simple, brightly colored illustrations that mimic children's drawings.
And both books end with a reminder to tell your own grandma or grandpa
that you love them!
School Library Journal rightly called these
books "Good additions to any
collection and wonderful choices for a storytime."
Interest Level: Preschool - 1st grade

all have just one sentence about grandmas/grandpas plus a fun
illustration to go with it.
