Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Grandparents... Through the Eyes of Frankie & Phil
Karen Bilton · 2023
68/100
👎 Skip It
A warm, genuine picture book rooted in a real grandmother's love for her grandkids — you can feel the authenticity. The concept is sweet and the humor is age-right, but with almost no trade coverage and self-published distribution, there is not enough evidence to confidently call it a standout pick over better-vetted options in the grandparent-bond genre.
