A poignant and beautiful picture book celebrating the love between a grandfather and his grandchild, from Man Booker Award-winning author David Grossman.

Every Wrinkle has a Story encourages young children to ask questions about wrinkles, with a beautifully told and illustrated multigenerational tale.
