About
Details
Although the text is brief and to the point, Castellucci includes many descriptive touches: Grandma “scolds” her succulents; and she smells of earth, coffee, hairspray, and perfume. This is a good choice for one-on-one sharing; pair with Tomie dePaola’s Nana Upstairs & Nana Downstairs (1998) or Deborah Hopkinson’s Bluebird Summer (2001). Grades K-3. --Kay Weisman · Cecil Castellucci is the author of many acclaimed books for older readers, including Boy Proof, The Queen of Cool, and Beige.
