A joyful ode to the special bond between grandfathers and their grandchildren and the fun of a camping trip
A girl and her grandfather strike out on an outdoor adventure in this heartfelt rhyming picture book, set to the classic rhyme of “One Two, Buckle My Shoe,” from acclaimed creators Shelly Becker and Dan Yaccarino.
“Yaccarino’s signature illustrations feature bold, bright colors and patches of pattern on each spread, coupled flawlessly with Becker’s exhilarating text to capture the immeasurable love shared between the child and her grandfather. Sure to be a cherished favorite, this simple but resonant book is highly recommended for early elementary collections.” (School Library Journal starred review)
One, two, Grandpa loves you.
Three, four, rush to the door.
Five, six, camping trip.
Seven, eight, best travel mate.
