A brilliant, funny book about Christmas gatherings, encompassing everything children might want from such a festive read. Granny is a delightful character and her adventures around the table will certainly delight younger readers.
My thoughts:
My daughter loved this book! She laughed upon seeing granny getting a sprout stuck up her sneezer and followed the story eagerly to see what happens next. As she saw that the whole family became involved in helping her out, she laughed out loud. It also pleased her to see the ingenious solution used to help Granny, but I am not going to share it… you will have to discover that for yourselves.
With the festive season just around the corner, we were happy to come across this rib-tickling story. My daughter kept trying to imagine her own grandmas in the same situation, which added to the fun of the reading experience. I loved how the author encouraged her readers to share the story with the “wonderful grannies and nannies in your life”. Books like this one lead to beautiful moments we share together as a family, which will one day become precious memories.
The colorful illustrations, done by the author herself, illustrate the humor in the story to perfection. Even as an adult, you will find yourself laughing so hard, that you will have a hard time getting the words out. Honestly, this is the kind of book you will want to read over and over again. From the super fun rhymes to the incredibly cute characters, this story has it all. And I guarantee you will never look at veggies the same way ever again!
Verdict:
This was a delightful read and it definitely got us in the mood for Christmas. I think it would make the perfect gift for the holidays, perhaps next to a Christmas jumper, as the one Granny is wearing in the book. Written with humor and a dollop of fondness for grannies, the author invites the readers to just swim in silliness and forget about the world for a moment or two.
