Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Our Grandfamily
Sandra Werle · 2016
80/100
👍 Worth It
The flip-sided dual-perspective format is a genuinely clever solution to a real need — giving both grandchildren and grandparent caregivers a way to see their situation reflected and validated in the same book. Developed directly from Calgary families' lived experiences, it reads with authenticity rather than institutional distance. The small-press distribution limits its reach, but for the families it was made for it is a meaningful and well-executed resource.
