Love, Grandma is a children’s book written by Ann Morris. In this book, the author narrates the joyful time that she had spent with her beautiful granddaughters, Haley and Payton.

In the beginning, the author tells that she considers herself lucky and blessed to witness her granddaughters grow. She then describes how they spent their time together having fun and doing various amusing activities. The author and her granddaughters together, bake cookies, paint the pathway, play, build tent houses, and do much other fun stuff.

Love, Grandma is a short book that is around 20 pages long. It has vivid and colorful illustrations done by David Gnass. The author has written this fantastically, such that the last word of each line rhymes with the next. I appreciate her writing style. It is quite eloquent and easy for the kids to read.

The biggest appeal for me is the colorful illustrations that exactly depict what the author is conveying. I am sure that the kids will enjoy reading this. This book also gives the idea to the children as to how they can spend their time having fun and learning at the same time. The author has wonderfully treasured all the memories of her granddaughters in this lovely book. I appreciate the author’s thought of writing a children’s book about her own experiences. This also encourages other parents and grandparents to spend more quality time with their kids and grandchildren. The best part about this book is that it got me nostalgic. It reminded me of the times that I spent with my grandmother and how much fun we had together.

There is nothing that I disliked about this book. The book is professionally edited as I did not find any errors in it. This book has no obscenity or profanity. With that being said, I rate this book 4 out of 4 stars. I find no reason to rate this any lower. I highly recommend this book to kids between the age of 3 to 7 years, grandparents, and parents. This book is not suitable for people who do not enjoy reading children’s books. But for anybody who chooses to read this book, I am sure you will definitely like it.

Love, Grandma

It is a shame that every child can't have that kind of grandparents to help guide them. Wonderful review!

Lovely idea to connect children with their grandparents. I look forward to reading it for my toddler.
Feeling upset sometimes may be unavoidable, but acting distressed is always optional.
