But the arrival of a new grandchild can open up an exciting new chapter for you, from being the go-to babysitter in the little one's life, to the fun older figure they look forwarding to visiting, or even the long-distance grandparent who keeps in touch via emails, letters, photographs and presents. Whichever way you choose to do it, becoming a grandparent will be one of the most challenging, rewarding, uplifting and important things you will ever do.This little book is the perfect gift for every grandparent, whether they are about to welcome their first grandchild or an experienced hand juggling multiple little ones.
