Picture book of the month

Our choice for February 2015 is a sneak preview of (the rather perfectly named) I Love My Granny by Giles Andreae with illustrations by Emma Dodd - a celebration of grandparents and the special role they play in family life from an award-winning, bestselling team.

I love my granny.

Can you tell?

She says I'm pretty great as well!

The joy of spending a fun-filled day with granny is explored with warmth and humour. An ideal present for every family, this book will delight time and time again.

Giles Andreae is the author of many top selling award-winning picture books, including Rumble in the Jungle, Commotion in the Ocean, and I Love My Mummy. However, it is for the international bestseller Giraffes Can't Dance that he is best known. Giles is also the creator of Purple Ronnie, Britain's favourite stickman, and of the artist/philosopher, Edward Monkton. These two ranges of greetings cards, books and merchandise have made Giles the country's top selling living poet and an icon of contemporary popular culture.. Giles lives with his wife, Victoria, a children's clothes designer, and their four young children by the river in Oxfordshire.

I Love My Granny will be published on 5 March and available online and from all good booksellers. We are delighted to have 50 copies to give away - to enter the draw simply fill out the form below. Note that only registered Gransnet usernames will be entered into the draw.
