Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Grandma and Me
Carole Boston Weatherford · 2022
78/100
👍 Worth It
Carole Boston Weatherford and Ashleigh Corrin deliver a warm, joyful board book that celebrates Black grandmother love in all its variety — different body types, different abilities, all the same warmth. The rhythmic text is ideal for lap-read sessions, and an award-winning illustrator makes every page glow. Simple by design, but exactly right for its tiniest audience.
