My Little Grandmother Often Forgets

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Kathryn Brown. In this poignant rhyming story, Tom's grandmother becomes so forgetful and disoriented that she has to move in with his family. Lindbergh mitigates the sadness of the situation by focusing on Tom's warm relationship with his grandmother: "But she says she's found ME, / so she thinks she will stay." Soft (but not sappy) watercolor and ink illustrations depict the loving family.
