Illustrated by
Anne-Laure Fournier le Ray.
Text and small cartoon-style pen-and-ink sketches enumerate the many possible characteristics of grandparents: "Some don't hear very well / but some hear all too well." Although the text is dry, there is humor in the illustrations and dialogue bubbles that will be appreciated by both ends of the target audience--children and their grandparents.
