5.0 out of 5 stars
wonderful diversity of cultures,
By
This review is from: Our Grandparents: A Global Album (Global Fund for Children Books) (Paperback)
In a touching foreword Archbishop Desmond Tutu acknowledges how important the relationship between grandparents and grandchildren is for both. Simple declarative sentences describe how grandparents behave: they love their grandchildren, play and laugh, tell good stories, share stories about their past. Each double spread displays a group of engaging photographs that clearly reveal the wonderful diversity of cultures found both in the USA, and other countries. The first double spread shows some sweet photographs, and then lists the names for grandmother and grandfather in many different languages including Japanese, Swahili, and Arabic. The final two pages sum up some activities to do with grandparents: play together, record memories, plan an adventure. Photo credits are provided on the last page. Some of the proceeds for this book are donated to the Global Fund for Children.

My three-year old son LOVES this book!,
This review is from: Our Grandparents: A Global Album (Global Fund for Children Books) (Paperback)
My son cannot read this book enough. He giggles as we read the words for Grandma and Grandpa in the various languages and enjoys matching the photos of grandparents and grandchildren from around the world with the appropriate country on the map. In just a few reads he has already learned how to find three countries!
The best part of the book for me is that it has really encouraged my son to see his grandparents as people. At the book's suggestion, he asked my mother about the school she went to when she was little and what she used to bring for lunch. I learned something too as I never knew my mother used to love peanut butter and jelly sandwiches! I wholeheartedly recommend this book.
