Such an adorable and heartwarming story book. Delightful, cheery pictures. Grammie’s house is up for sale and her young granddaughter stops by to show and tell the young couple looking at it all the special things. I could just feel the joy and delight radiating from this child. I was smiling throughout the entire book. I was blessed with a free ARC, and I’m voluntarily leaving this review. Highly recommend.
The premise was super cute. But I felt it could’ve had a better flow. Felt rushed and I think if some of it rhymed it would’ve been more enjoyable
But thought it was cute
This was a cute and unique was to show the child’s perspective of a home. Having her show the buyers was cute. Has a bit of a sad overtone though
This sweet picturebook depicts a child showing new neighbors around their Grammie’s old home. The illustrations show outlines of what once was inside Grammie’s house. This book would be perfect for a storytime or bed time story. Or great for a child who is missing their grandparent.
I had a Grammie's House that I grew up in and I thought this would be all about Grammie but it wasn't. It was what her house used to be. It was cool how there were outlines in each of the rooms showing what it used to be, back when Grammie was there. I found myself with lots of questions and wondering what happened to Grammie. Then at the end you see the house is For Sale, which made me sad as I wasn't expecting that. So be prepared for that when reading to a child.
Thanks to NetGalley and the Publisher for the ARC.
It was short and sweet. Didn’t care much for the illustrations though. But that’s probably just my personal preference.
What a sweet story about a little girl showing off her grandma's house to potential buyers. She points out all the highlights and even offers to be friends, saying her grandma would like that.
Thanks to NetGalley for letting me read this
What a cute story! Every kid can relate to going to grandma’s. Or a lot can rather. And all the different things you can do with grandma vs with your parents. It’s a special place which makes this a special story.
“It’s the best best ever great stories and it’s super cute” as per my 5 year old son, “I live close by and my Grandma’s house is SO cool”.
I also found it so adorable. Such a touching story showing how much the child loved his grandma and valued his time spent visiting her house. It kind of makes me a bit sad thinking of my own Grama who passed away nearly a year ago.
This delightful little girl proves the best real-estate agent ever as she shows some prospective buyers all the special things about her Grammie’s house — including a large closet that makes for a great club house, a visiting neighborhood cat, a great tree for climbing, the backyard swings and lots more. We never find out why Grammie isn’t living there anymore, but, regardless, she clearly lives on his granddaughter’s heart. A wonderful, wonderful book about clinging to great memories.
In the interest of full disclosure, I received this book from NetGalley, Penguin Random House Canada and Tundra Books in exchange for an honest review.
