Children's Books with Real Grandparents
Some of these grandmas are raising grandkids, some are world travelers, and others take over coaching your baseball team. Some of these grandpas danced on a vaudeville stage, can teach you how to catch a fish, and know your favorite ice cream flavor. Some are starting to forget. All of these grandparents show great love and wisdom with their beloved grandchildren.
Chosen by children’s literature professionals, these illustrated books have been taught in graduate study classrooms, and passed the true test - loved by our own kids and grandkids. Our annotations and library gems (no longer in print) HERE. - Karen Ritz, author, illustrator, and creator of www.grandycamp.info and Grandma to Jack and Grace; Dr. Rebecca Rapport, retired Children’s Literature Professor, University of Minnesota, former editor of New Books for Young Readers, and Grandma to Damien.
