Translated by Martina Rasdeuschek-Simmons.
Illustrated by
Christa Unzner.
Tony hasn't seen his grandmother for a while, so he's apprehensive when she offers to take him for the weekend. Her ideas for a good time, however, delight him, and by the end of the weekend, all agree they should visit more often. Grandmother is only mildly unconventional, but her exploits are amusing. Some of the facial expressions in the illustrations are unattractive.
