The little girl in our story notices people are saying her great grandma is getting old, just as the title of this book suggests. However, our heroine only sees the beauty and wisdom her great grandmother has to offer. She sees her great grandmother's beautiful eyes, loves going for walks with her, and is fascinated by the fact her great grandmother stays awake all night and decides if she didn't have to go to school, she would do the very same thing!We all should cherish our parents, grandparents and great grandparents. And we should also cherish ourselves and enjoy every single minute of our lives. This is a very good book to read to that young child who begins to notice loved ones are changing and getting old. It reminds us we can be beautiful at any age and that indeed we are beautiful every day of our lives. Just ask any child! Written by award winning author, Penelope Dyan, from the prospective of a child, this is the perfect gift for grandma, great grandma, your grandchild, great grandchild, son or daughter, to start the dialog moving.
