This book shows a wonderful heart filled story about a loving relationship between a grandmother and her granddaughter. When the granddaughter goes over to visit her grandmother after every visit her grandmother takes her into her bedroom and gives her something special to remember her by. When the granddaughter was younger they would bake cookies and go shopping together. Now that she is growing up and the grandmother is getting older she is beginning to forget things. The granddaughter gives her something special so that she will never forget her.
This book tells us that there are special gifts that can be given but the greatest gift is the gift of love. This book is a celebration of love, memories, and a relationshp of special people.
The book inspires us all both young and old to treasure the memories and the special people we hold in our hearts. It's the little things that bring warm smiles and hearts full of love.

This book shows the warm relationship of a grandmother and granddaughter. Even the ordinary seems like a special treat with Grandma. When it's time for the granddaughter to leave, the grandmother ends each visit with a trip to the cedar chest at the foot of her bed. She pulls out "something to remember me by". Years pass, time takes its toll, and the grandmother fears she can no longer remember well enough. The granddaughter discovers the true treasures her grandmother left. Reading this book is like stepping into my grandmother's kitchen because she also left behind a treasure chest of memories.

This book is GOOD! One of my friends told me about it, and I can't believe what a special treasure she passed along to me. I am a grandmother, and this story perfectly captured the relationship between my granddaughter and me. It will teach any grandmother, new or old, what this relationship is all about and how important it is. There is also a "how to" book that sort of goes along with it called "How to Build the Grandma Connection" (also by Susan V. Bosak). It should be required reading for any grandmother (and grandfather!) out there. Both books make a great package. Highly recommended!

I absolutely loved this book. I have read it and read it. I am a woma in my 50s and my grandmothers are no longer living, but they had a big impact upon my childhood. There memories and special to me. This book helps you remember why these memories are so special.
I work as the Activities Assistant in a Care and Rehad center for the elderly. I have read this book to them many times and they all tell me they like the book. It has a very poignant message however, but sooner or later we all need to face the passing of the generation. But as someone has said, if they live in our memories they never die. That is the ultimate message of this book

This book was absolutely wonderful, and the illustrations were outright sensational. You must share this book with someone you love. An excellent family book.

I bought this book for my mother-in-law, because having three daughters, this was the perfect gift for her.

This book presents the story of a grandmother and granddaughter over the years. It is a wonderful story that celebrates the special connections and memories that span across generations.

This short book emphasizes the little things that truly matter most. The illustrations are truly incredible, and extremely realistic. This story is quite satisfying and will bring a tender joy to your heart. Susan Bosak uses a poignant, candid language that allows the nice story to shine through. It is just something that should be share with as many generations within your family as possible.

This book should be required reading for all families. It will inspire everyone to search for their own means of remembrance. Something To Remember Me By will easily be remembered.

This really is a great book, a little something to remind us of the impact grandparents have in our lives and on our own children.
