5.0 out of 5 stars Expresses the love that founds generations and keeps on giving, July 20, 2009

This review is from: My Grandchild, There's No One Like You (Birth Order Books) (Hardcover)

"My Grandchild, There's No One Like You" is a warm and delightful children's book about two lucky grandcubs (grandchildren bears) who get to visit their Grandma and Grandpaw Bear and have a wonderful time. Whether dressing up in old clothes, eating dessert first, making cookies, fishing with Grandpaw, or jumping on Grandma's bed before their nap, the grandcubs have a special time visiting the Grandbears. The message is the memories that they are building will last a lifetime and reach across generations to the future to be passed down to their grandchildren one day. "My Grandchild, There's No One Like You" expresses the love that founds generations and keeps on giving. The humorous bear illustrations add gentle detail to the story. Aimed at children ages 3-8, "My Grandchild, There's No One Like You" can be enjoyed by grandchildren of all ages.

This book has an easy to follow story, decent graphics, and a good moral. My Grandchildren liked it, but didn't love it.

This review is from: My Grandchild, There's No One Like You (Birth Order Books) (Hardcover)

purchased the book, My Grandchild There's No One Like You as a gift. I thankfully read it befor giving it. It is an embarassement!!! It is all about the grandparents going against the parents rules and leting the grandkids do only fun things like eat dessert befor dinner, junp on beds and stay up late. It does not show any responsibility on the part of adults and shows disrespect for the parents- not a lesson any true grandparent would want to teach their grand-loved ones. The same message of loving a child so much that you do special things for them could of been told in a much more responsible way by a child than this book. I wish I could return for a refund, but do not want to waste the shipping...
