Grandma's Scrapbook

Ages 9 to 12 years. A scrapbook of memorabilia chronicles the tender and sometimes zany moments shared between Grandma and her granddaughter during their seaside summers. Pages of the lively scrapbook are interspersed with watercolour-rendered photographs of the girl, now a teenager, as she reminisces about their relationship. The last summer in the scrapbook reveals how their roles have changed. Now the girl guides Grandma's wheelchair to places Grandma once brought her on the back of her bike or in a stroller. This poignant story uplifts and dignifies the experience of ageing and loss, tingeing it not with sadness, but with hope and wonder.Nobisso, Josephine is the author of 'Grandma's Scrapbook' with ISBN 9780940112056 and ISBN 0940112051.
