Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

PreS Up-A collection of photographs of grandparents and grandchildren lovingly interacting. Each page features a hand-tinted photo in a unique, coordinating frame that incorporates a quote in extremely small print from either the adult or the child. The sentence "Grandparents are the greatest because-" is repeated throughout. The text is both humorous and tender. The author's feelings about being a grandparent-joy, wonder, and love-are all reflected in this simple, touching tribute.

Great job getting me both of these books. I had actually ordered them earlier this spring for Mother's Day, was charged for it and never received it. It was an inconvenience getting my money back. Thank you for following through very quickly with your end of the bargain. You did a great job! This is a wonderful book for anyone close to their grandparents.
