How to Babysit a Grandma (How To Series)

fun and entertaining book for young ones, great bedtime book.

Cute book that I gave to my friend as she was expecting her first grandchild. She loved it!

Cutest book and Grandma and Granddaughter approved! She giggled at the part of having a Shoe Sale. Best ever. And she is just 3 months old. Best price, colorful, captivating, and perfect size to show pictures. Loved the company and arrived on time in perfect condition! A must for all grandma's and granddaughters! Never too early to start reading to Baby Girl!

This is a cheerful review because I was quite taken by this book. That's a bit surprising, because experience suggests that most grandparent books are so Hallmark/Disney/Family-Values bland or tin-eared that they read like long form greeting cards. Not so here. This book has a puckish sense of humor and a bit of parenting wisdom behind it. The twist, that the kid is babysitting the grandma, is clever and is a joke that even a younger child will get. Good start, but you still have to have a grandma and a grandchild who do real things. In this book the little jokes are telling and the interaction between grandma and child seem real and unforced. How they amuse each other and entertain and occupy themselves could be drawn from some ideal sleepover memories. From visits to the park to goofy crafts to leaving the light on for grandma at bedtime, this tale is fun, silly, and real, or at least what we wish were real. Heck, even grandma's grey hair looks good. (Although, there should probably be a section about "pretending" how hard it is to get up off the carpet.) The drawing is colorful, energetic and engaging. "Fun" is pretty hard to draw, but Lee Wildish did a great job of drawing just enough to get across the idea. The layout of the text and pictures is broken up in a way that gets across the haphazard and sort of manic nature of a sleepover. There are lots of little jokes drawn in around the edges, (the dog's reaction to stuff may be the funniest part of the book), so this really does become a "picture book" worth looking at closely. The bottom line is I'm not sure you could read this grandparent book together and not have a good time and a couple of chuckles. How nice is that?

My 3-year-old granddaughter loves this book! I thought that she might be a little old for it since it's a board book, but she loves the story line. The story is short and cute and even addresses the separation anxiety when Mom and Dad leave. She asks me to read it at least once every time I am at her house. I also purchased the "How to Babysit Grandpa book also. She likes it just as much. We usually read both books together. She now has a baby sister, so when she gets a little older, she can enjoy them too.

This delightful New York Times bestseller is part of a playful “How-To” series that includes How to Babysit a Grandpa, How to Surprise a Dad, and more. In this installment, a young girl “babysits” her grandma for a sleepover, offering readers a whimsical guide full of imaginative tips and activities.

My daughter loves this book and has a great time reading it with grandma!☺️

I’m sure your grands will enjoy this as much as mine who were 6 and 4!!!
