Picture Books

With child-like smiling stick figures, bold, brilliant colour and upbeat text, picture-book creator Todd Parr celebrates the diverse, wonderful world of grandmothers in The Grandma Book.Parr focuses on the differences between individual grandparents (Some grandmas like to make you eat a lot, some grandmas like to make you things), but brings it all together every few pages with lines like 'All grandmas like to hear from you!' and finishing with 'All grandmas like to give you lots of kisses!' Parr's quirky artwork and eternally optimistic - yet never saccharine - books are truly irresistible, for both grown-ups and kids.
