5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent way to gain insight into your grandfather's life!, March 28, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Grandfather's Memories To His Grandchild (Hardcover)

What an incredible catalyst in gaining knowledge into who your grandfather is now, and how they came to be that way. This prompted journal guides the writer to places and things they may have forgotten while allowing for complete individuality. The information I learned from reading my grandfather's responses to this book helped me gain a better understanding of how society has changed through the years. The memories that were told provided unmeasurable insight into my grandfather's life. This journal will be a treasure for my family now and for years to come!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Series - A living history in your own words, June 1, 2006

By 

Mike (Concord, CA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Grandfather's Memories To His Grandchild (Hardcover)

This is a great series. My wife and I have completed the Mother and Father books and we have provided the grandparent books to each respectively. Each book in the series provides you with a number of topic headings covering all facets of your life. You fill out your history in your own words. What a great thing to give your child/grandchild. I don't typically take the time to review books. However, this series was worth the time. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best-ever gift from a granddad to his grandchild, August 24, 2009

This review is from: Grandfather's Memories To His Grandchild (Hardcover)

Kinkade's "Grandfather's Memories for his Grandchild" is a wonderful gift for a granddad to complete and present to his grandchild later in life. I have carried mine in my briefcase for 10 years and add to it on airplanes, in airports and hotel rooms literally around the world. The questions are thought-provoking and, when answered carefully with candor, reveal a picture of granddad that the child may never experience, particularly granddad's early growing up years and family life. I am so taken with the sweetness and thoroughness of the questions that I buy multiple copies to give to friends who are new granddads. The experience in completing this treasury of insight results in a deeply personal, one-of-a-kind gift that's addressed only to that grandchild. And it will be treasured forever.
