Description
Little Goldie is an expert on grandchilding. She knows that grandparents are special creatures who thrive in a structured environment, need plenty of opportunities for imaginative play, love having dance parties, and will never turn down a cuddle. When it comes to the care and feeding of her beloved Grandpa, Goldie knows her stuff. And, as readers will discover, Grandpa knows a thing or two about grandchildren, too.
The beloved author (with his three sons) of the #1 NYT bestselling Adventure Zone graphic novels, Clint McElroy is also grandfather to many grandchildren, all of whom are experts at grandchilding.
Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?
"When Goldie and her grandfather regard a parentally forbidden, multistory ice cream dessert, obtained with one of Grandpa's beloved coupons, their eyes light up with identical hearts of love--the very definition of soul mates."—Publisher's Weekly
A great addition to the childing shelf.—Booklist
