"Groovy Granny" is a MUST HAVE for your family's bookshelf! Mom Heather writes the catchy brilliant verses while daughter Kayla cements each delightful poem with her colorful & clever drawings-destined to be a family heirloom. I bought TWO!

This book is a delight. Heather brings a quirkiness to this book which has echos of Dr Suess but the humour is pure Heather. Kayla's illustrations show a remarkable grasp on the world around her. The opening poem, "Gadget Snow Pants", is pure genius. The young ones will love it. Us big kids will feel like kids again.
