Grandma's Face Tells Her Story is a heartwarming and endearing tale that beautifully highlights the unique bond between a granddaughter and her grandmother. As bedtime approaches, the little girl eagerly listens to her grandma sing a lullaby, but what truly captivates her is the story her grandma’s face tells. From Grandma’s deep, expressive brown eyes to the freckles on her chin, her face is full of life and stories. There are also the little dimples in her cheeks, the twitchy nose, and the ability to move her eyebrows separately—each feature capturing a moment in time, from laughter to sneezing to whistling.

This delightful story goes beyond just a simple bedtime ritual; it celebrates the love and familiarity that come with the little details of someone’s face. The girl doesn’t just observe these features—she cherishes them because they represent who her grandma is. Grandma’s face isn’t just a collection of features; it tells the story of her life, her kindness, and her role in the family. She’s the referee at family soccer games, using her skillful whistle through the gap in her front teeth, and she puffs her cheeks at the dentist to help her granddaughter stay calm.

What makes this story so special is how it gently teaches children to appreciate the people they love by noticing the little things that make them unique. Grandma's face becomes more than just a bedtime story—it becomes a story of connection, warmth, and family.

Grandma's Face Tells Her Story is a sweet and tender read, full of love and charm. The illustrations complement the narrative beautifully, capturing the expressions and emotions that make this story come to life. A perfect read for bedtime or any time a child wants to feel close to the ones they love.
