Grandparents Delight

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago

Reading a book together is a great way to share a special time with a grandchild. But when a grandchild enjoys the book enough to ask for it again, then you're sharing a memory--a book you can remember loving together. A Mother's Journey is one of those books. I've now also given it as gifts to my friends who are grandparents. DON'T MISS IT!
