Written in jaunty verse and with warm, hugely appealing illustrations this is a joyful tribute to the love between grandparents and a grandchild, and the very special times they have together. ‘I always feel wrapped up in love when I stay at their place’ says the little zebra on the way to Gran and Grandpa’s and what a fun time they have: there are presents to discover, cake to eat, a day out at the fair and a chance to do some building with Grandpa. When Gran and Grandpa come to stay, it’s just as good, with a trip to the park and pool, some being silly at home, and cosy bedtime stories. Lovely!
I'm off to Gran and Grandpa's, There's a BIG smile on my face, I always feel wrapped up in love, When I stay at their place! Packed full of fun, love and affection, this book shows just how special the relationship is between a child and their grandparents.
