The time a grandmother spends with her grandchild

Reviewed in the United States on July 28, 2019

Verified Purchase

I love this book and the numerous little children I have read it to also loved it. They had a smile on their face the whole time they were listening to the wonderful adventures that Ziggy had with his grandmother. Each adventure was so special and filled with learning and fun. Also, the colorful and adorable pictures were a big hit with everyone. I highly recommend this book. It is a must gift for all little children.

The bond between grandparents and grandchildren is very special and nurturing.

I bought two copies of the book for my friend’s grandchildren and they both gave it rave reviews, wanting to have it read to them over and over again. I found the story to be creative and funny and definitely a tribute to the relationship between grandparents and grandchildren. It was truly an uplifting, and feel good experience for all. We are looking forward to the second book in the series.

Reading this book to my toddler granddaughter was so joyful. We share many adventures together; now she asks me, "can we go on adventures with Ziggy". I'm looking forward to Ziggy's new adventures in the next book. May the value of such talented writers and illustrators like this never be replaced with a digital book world.

My book finally came today and I can honestly say it was worth the wait...what a wonderful introduction to a world of simple adventure that can be shared with your grandchildren...can’t wait to share it with my grand niece and nephew...best part is the snug - a - hug that awaits you at the end!

I may be biased but here's the truth: My two little girls LOVE their wacky Grandma! They ask to read the book all the time. I'm so proud of my mom for fulfilling her dream of publishing her writing and even more proud that her granddaughters are her biggest fans.

This is an adorable, heartwarming book that my grandchildren love! They can relate to so many of the individual adventures and they love the wonderful detailed illustrations ! The children are excited to join in the "Snug-A Hug" at the end of each episode!

The wonderful World of my Wacky Grandma is a winner

I can’t profess to write a review for a children’s book except to say I am all aboard because my grandchildren absolutely loved it.What attracts young children to specific books is difficult to predict but I guess it doesn’t matter. My kids were thrilled with it and that does matter.

What I love about this book is that by the end of the book, my grandchildren and I were talking about what adventure WE should take , this went on and on until we finally decided what to do for the afternoon....then they said READ IT AGAIN!
