From acclaimed creators Shelly Becker and Dan Yaccarino comes this joyful board book about a girl and her grandmother as they plan the perfect visit together
This joyful rhyming board book is a tender love letter between every grandchild and grandmother who live far apart.
Dan Yaccarino’s enchanting illustrations and Shelly Becker’s jaunty text—based on the beloved nursery rhyme “One, Two, Buckle My Shoe”—carry a reminder that no matter how far away Grandma may be, her love is always with you.
One, two, Grandma loves you. / Three, four, visit more.
Five, six, precious pics. / Seven, eight, mark the date.
Publishers Weekly praised the hardcover edition of this book: “The duo’s intergenerational affection is portrayed as effortless, effusive, and unconditional. A wonderful celebration of reunions.” And in a starred review, School Library Journal called it “a pure, cadenced classic, where the clues to good times past and present add up to a generous look at the special bonds of an extended family.”
