Official synopsis Publisher
There’s nobody like a grandparent. Everyone and everything always hurries a kid along: mothers and fathers, brothers and sisters, even cars and buses. But when Grandfather’s around, nobody needs to hurry. Isn’t it nice to know there’s someone who always lets you go at your own pace?
And other people have laps for sitting on and backs for riding on. But when you have a cold or lighting is coming, nothing feels quite as right as rocking on Grandmother’s lap, listening to the little tunes that she hums.
