A sweet story with beautiful illustrations, a story full of love and mutual admiration between grandmother and granddaughter, and a calming, almost singsong pattern to the text.
While not quite as zingy as My Pop Pop and Me, created by the same team in, My Nana and Me is definitely a sweet story, though I did wonder about the inclusion of "Eskimo kisses" in terms of cultural appropriateness.
Theme: Grandmothers/Grandparents, Heroines, Family This is a lovely little children's story that tells of the special relationship between a young girl and her Nana.
There are some lovely images in the book too This is a wonderful book about a girl and her grandmother.
The illustrations are wonderful. The things that the grandmother and granddaughter do are so wonderful, Really wonderful read. This book is a charming story about the strong bond of love between a little girl and her beloved Nana.
It takes you through a special day they spend together enjoying a tea party, dressing up fancy, playing hideandseek, sharing Eskimo kisses sprinkled with words of endearment, plaiting Nana's hair, playing patacake and much more.
They are truly enjoying each other's company so much just lovin' on one another,
After a warm bath the little girl basks in cuddle time curled up on Nana's knee, Nana reads story after story to her which delights them both, Then it's time for bed, The two lovebirds snuggle up under the blankets and drift off to sleep to the rhythm of their heartbeats blending together.
The amazing illustrations are softly coloured and they augment the strong feeling of the love that flow between the two.
The illustrator has included at the beginning of the book a place to insert a picture of the reader's Nana which personalizes the book making it a family treasure.
This heartwarming story is a celebration of love between a granddaughter and her grandmother and I highly recommend it.
Such an adorable book but the dialogue left much to the imagination, The illustrations were fantastic. This wonderful children's story manages to tell a heartfelt tale accompanied by colourful images of black family love! I received this book on NetGalley.
The dialogue was definitely age appropriate and descriptive, and the illustrations were fantastic! Coupled together they help take young readers on a delightful walk through a little girl's day with her Nana.
Also, the illustrations were very vivid and colorful, and made it easy to follow the words without even being able to read.
I would definitely recommend this book for young children under, This delightful story follows a little girl and her grandmother through a day filled with tea parties, dancing, hideandseek, patacake, bathtime, storytime, and bedtime.
Depending on who the reader or listener is, they will take various things from this story The love between grandparents and their grandchildren, being raised by grandparents being a normal situation, a sleepover with grandma, how wonderful it is to spend time with your grandparents etc.
The story is told in simple language for young children to understand, My only complaint as a teacher is "Nana and Me" on the first page when gramatically it should be "Nana and I".
The watercolour illustrations add warmth to the story, The expressions on the faces of both the grandmother and granddaughter are priceless, they are so real, The emotions expressed are easy to see and relate to, What a wonderful story to use as a bedtime story, for grandma and grandchild to share and talk about or to use as a reminder to spend time with your grandparents whenever you can.
A great addition to a home, classroom or school library, The publisher generously provided me with a copy of this book via Netgalley, Good diversity, good grandma and grandchild bonding book, .
