Visits with Grandpa — Dawn Marie Hooks

Delightful, sweet, and thoughtful, VISITS WITH GRANDPA is a beautifully illustrated picture book about Grandpa and his granddaughter, Ana. Enjoyed by ages 3 through 103, this story is written in clever couplets and illustrated through vibrant watercolor paintings. “I cannot climb the rope ladder up, up to the top. But I can hold it still to make sure you don't drop.” Grandpa is able to overcome his limitations and show his granddaughter, Ana, that he can still be her best friend. Notes from the author at the end of the story include suggestions for talking to children about aging or sick loved ones.
