Product Description
Share with your grandchild the exciting, emotional, amusing, embarrassing, and interesting moments of your life with the "story of you." --Andy and Susan Hilford

 

For the fifteen million grandmothers who are keepers of family history and memories, The Grandmother Book is a lively and timely way to record your story for future generations.

 

* Andy and Susan Hilford present the perfect way for grandmothers of all ages to pass along a grandmother's story.  The story is one that recounts coming-of-age moments, life-changing events, a look back at what was, family anecdotes and historical insight.  With thoughtful, surprising, at times unexpected, and provocative questions, this book is directed to the new generation of baby boomer grandmothers. From early memories of her childhood, to the time she began her own family, to the present as she watches her family continue to grow, this valuable, prompted keepsake ensures that the thoughts, moments, events, images, and ideas that shaped her life are collected in her voice and in her hand for a precious audience.

 

* This grandmother's book of memories includes spaces for special photographs, report cards, family tree, and other cherished memorabilia and keepsakes, along with thoughtful, amusing, memory-nudging prompts to kick-start grandmother's storytelling

 

* A perfect gift on Grandparent's Day, Mother's Day, wedding anniversaries, and birthdays, the book's hardcover binding and decorative four color art ensure its status as a written family treasure for generations to come.

 
Customer Reviews for  'The Grandmother Book: A Book About You for Your Grandchild'
 
The Grandmother Book
The Grandmother Book is unique because it asks the grandparent to reveal her personality and achievements in a fun and interesting manner. I have bought many copies to give as holiday presents for grandparents who appear old but are young in spirit and heart.
 
It's okay
I bought it after reading all the great reviews, but it was a bit too "cutesy"; didn't seem like language that most people would use. It does have a lot of space to write and some good questions, but no better than any other book. I would pass on this one, and get one of the many other good choices out there.
 
Great Mother's Day Present
After seeing this book on "The View", I decided that I was going to buy it for my mother, mother-in-law, and stepmom. After seeing their reaction, I knew this book was golden. My mother-in-law has said this has been her favorite mother's day present in years. She spent the whole next weekend digging through photo albums and writing in the book. I decided to give this book to my own grandmother and grandmother-in-law as well. What a great way to pass on family history!
 
Loved it!!
I gave this to my mother so that she could fill it out for my son. She and I both absolutely loved it. I can't wait for her to complete it and for my son to get it back as a gift from his grandmother, detailing her many life experiences. The price was cheaper than any of my local book stores.
 
Not for the divorced granma...
This is cute, but as soon as I received it and thumbed through it, I realized it was inappropriate for my mom, who hasn't been with "grandpa" for a long time. It has several pages for "first date with grandpa", "first kiss with grandpa", etc, which would have been awkward, since they're divorced...
