5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect gift
This book is a perfect gift for anyone you know that is going to be a grandmother or is already a grandmother. If you are invited to a baby shower, take along this extra little book for the mother of the mother-to-be. She will LOVE it!!!

2.0 out of 5 stars Cute. but not great
I thought there would be some kind of cutesy story in this book or at least catchy quotes, but I found neither. The book is really small and you'll be done with it in about 5 minutes at most. Seriously not worth the $[...] bucks i spent. If you plan on letting someone know that they are about to become a nana then, yeah, I suppose this would be fine. Other than that...

5.0 out of 5 stars The perfect gift for Grandma, January 29, 2003
This review is from: When a Child Is Born, So Is a Grandmother (Main Street Editions Gift Books) (Hardcover)
I bought this book as gifts for my mother and mother-in-law and couldn't have been happier with it. It is full of colorful, vibrant pictures and the words truly capture what a Grandmother is all about. Any Grandma would love this book!

This review is from: When a Child Is Born, So Is a Grandmother (Main Street Editions Gift Books) (Hardcover)
There are some grandmothers out there that rather be called by their 1st names or Nana in front of their names....i just thought this was a fun reminder of why being called a Grandma was GREAT

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Cute!, January 12, 2009

This review is from: When a Child Is Born, So Is a Grandmother (Main Street Editions Gift Books) (Hardcover)
I thought this was a very cute idea. And my mother in law seemed to really injoy it. However I was slightly annoyed by how small the book was. It's definately not the best size for a gift. Very cute though!

This review is from: When a Child Is Born, So Is a Grandmother (Main Street Editions Gift Books) (Hardcover)
As a fan of Mary Engelbreit and a first time grandmother-to-be I thought this would be a fun book.
It was dumb, not amusing and definitely not worth picking up.

This review is from: When a Child Is Born, So Is a Grandmother (Main Street Editions Gift Books) (Hardcover)
The book is charming & heartwarming. I will gift all my friends who are new or expectant grandmothers. Wouldn't it be lovely if the mother & father of the new baby gave it to the new grandmother!!?

This review is from: When a Child Is Born, So Is a Grandmother (Main Street Editions Gift Books) (Hardcover)
I am sorry to say I must have missed that this book had names written on the dedication page. I was disappointed but attribute it to my error, as I do not know how to go back to see the original ad.
The book is in fine shape, it came as promised in a timely fashion.
I would purchase again from this seller, but perhaps be more cautious reading the info provided.
