Great for many grandmas and kids
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
My Grandma and I is a fun book by P.K. Hallinan about a boy and a girl's relationship with their grandma. The book describes and pictures them playing hide and seek, playing with crayons and clay, playing counting games, working in the garden, fishing, watching movies, playing at the beach, eating a picnic - all with grandma. Grandma is also shown comforting a little one after he's fallen off a bike, giving the kids a bath, and putting them to bed. Christianity plays a backseat role in this book and only comes up at bedtime (prayer), and when Grandma comforts a child (by "showing compassion and God's tender ways'). What I Like: The illustrations are colorful and fun, showing a gray-haired, but young-at-heart grandma. The text is in rhyme. What I dislike: Nothing. Overall Rating: Excellent. Age Appeal: 4 to 8, but my baby has enjoyed this book since she was about 9 months old. Kristina, Editor at "Christian Children's Book Review"

This is my 2 year old granddaughter's favorite book. I bought My Grandpa and I, My Grandma and I, My Daddy and I, and My Mommy and I for both my children' families. They are well written and the children are able to understand and relate to the content.
Great Book for Grandmas

I gave this book to my mom for mother's day. I was hoping that she would enjoy reading it to my son, her grandson. It has a wonderful little story of all the things grandmas can do with their grandchildren. It even gave her ideas! She loves it and he loves to hear her read it. P.K. Hallinan writes wonderful stories.
Wer're Very Good Friends, My Grandpa and I

This book is great, especially for those children that have a special relationship with their grandfathers. My little boy's relationship with his Grandpa is so similar to this beautiful story. He absolutely loves it. He wants me to read it to him all of the time; however, his favorite is to have Grandpa read it to him. I highly recommend this and all of the other P.K.Halinan books.
