A peek inside is always fun:
Sometimes simple is just the best. This adorable book documents precious moments spent with Grandpa. Quality time, abounding love, and special relationships are portrayed in scenarios of fishing, gardening, fixing, kite flying, building, grilling, late night snacking, star gazing and many, many more.
The illustrator captures the tenderness of these moments by giving the characters direct eye contact, abundant smile-sharing, close, snuggly body contact and an overall feeling of contentment and happiness by just spending time together. These are treasured times between a grandchild and a Grandpa that they will hold in their hearts for a lifetime. These unforgettable memories being passed from one generation to the next will surely influence how that grandchild will be when he/she too becomes a Grandpa or Grandma. They will remember those heart-encounters .... and so the legacy will go. The overall message of the book.... ANYTIME is the right and best time to spend with Grandpa!" Amen.
