A Riverside Walk With Grandma

by Candida Labrecque



      This delightful little book starts out with the statement, "Mom dropped me off by the magnolia tree, to go for a walk, just Grandma and me." It tells of a joyful, quiet time between a child and grandmother as they spend some quality time walking along the river, exploring the flora and fauna.

Read this aloud so that your little ones can take an imaginary walk with Grandma too, just to see what they can find.  The beautiful scenery and imaginary quiet time together are refreshing.  You can personalize the book by writing your child's name on the heart shaped cookie after the title page and tape a photo of your favorite child in the space provided on page fifteen.

Labrecque's colorful watercolor illustrations add to the visual impact of the imaginary walk with Grandma.  Told in simple rhyming poetry the book can be either read aloud, or explored by children on their own for a great conversation starter.
