Love between grandbabies and grandparents is universal! All over the world, grandparents show their love by helping to care for their grandbabies. They make funny faces and share laughter, read stories and feed the babies, cuddle them and sing to them, and more. A great deal of warmth and feeling is packed into the seventeen pictures of this sturdy board book. Photos show people around the world, with countries of origin labeled. These include Argentina, the United Arab Emirates, Colombia, Ethiopia, Spain, India, and more. An emphasis here is on diversity, and people are shown with a variety of skin tones. Readers will quickly see that feelings of love are shared by family members everywhere on the globe. This feel-good book is one that grandparents will be happy to share with their little ones during sleepovers, while babysitting, or anytime.
