Cute illustrations…. Today’s grandmother is hardly old enough to be a grandmother. We envision grandmothers as those who bake apple pie, spend the day ironing, and are at least 55. These days it is hardly unusual to be a grandmother before you are forty.The contemporary grandmother may in fact drive a red convertible, be so young she doesn’t want to hear the word grandmother and may feel as though she perhaps isn’t ready to be a grandmother.Lois Wyse offers humorous stories to explain the happy days of being a grandmother in this day and age. This is the perfect gift for a contemporary grandmother as it is filled with a heartwarming collection of wit and wisdom the whole family will enjoy reading.Reflections on “What we name our grandmother,”.”The secret no grandmother ever tells,” “On the road with grams,” and many more stories illustrate the joy of being a modern grandmother. Microwave Apple Pie anyone?~The Rebecca Review
