The story is really well-told and telling of the importance between the grandparent/grandchild relationship. Developing this relationship is so important, and it reminds me of another similar book; "Something to Remember Me By" by Susan Bosak. Reader's will be captivated by how the grandparent/grandchild relationship develops in this very touching story. The illustrations are great. A perfect gift book for a grandmother.

Winning an Academy Award for INNERSPACE and the birth of his first child within days of each other, Harley Jessup is the PERFECT children's author and illustrator. From COW DAY at Oregon State University, this ARTIST has moved onwards and upwards. Keep these books coming Harley, some day I will have my own grandchildren to share with them.

This book was an ideal story as my grandson's name is Ben, I have red fingernails, reading glasses, live in Oregon and I used to have red hair but am now blond. Every year when I go see Ben we read this book but together and each taking turns as to who does the narrating. We've even been in one of those photo booths and we cherish those pictures.He was four but now he's eight. I can't thank the author enough for writing it.

Sincerely,

This book is a very dear story of a boy and his interesting grandma, who share some simple but wonderful moments at the shore. The gorgeous illustrations make this book a real treasure, one that will entice parents and kids to read and reread it. Don't pass up one of the most beautifully crafted books about family ever!
