Gramma Darling by
Lissa Schroeder is a beautiful story of nostalgia about grandmas. As seen
through the eyes of a child, the memories that are created with gramma are
treasured. The book is also beautifully illustrated by Doron Ben-Ami which
brings the images to life with stunning realism. The adventures at Gramma’s
house. The discovery as children exploring the rooms, finding treasures Time in
the garden with the flowers and vegetables. Children helping pulling weeds and
pull the wrong plants, opps! Watching the birds and wildlife around her house.
And most importantly Gramma’s cooking and baking!
Gramma Darling is
filled with the author’s memories of her own gramma. Reading her memories,
reminded me of my own memories of my grandma and the adventures I had at her
house. At the end of the book, the author included Gramma Darling’s Chocolaty
Cherry Cake, which I will definitely try! I recommend Gramma Darling for its nostalgic feel and memories of wonderful
grandmas.
