    About this ebook

    Three Cheers for Grandma!
    A young girl shares her keen and often hilarious observations about her grandmother. The story begins with "Grandma talks a lot. A lot." and continues with all of the things that make grandmas so wonderful. When the day is done, it's clear that grandmas make the world a better place and have a special role in every family.
    Hooray for Grandma makes an excellent Grandparent's Day read aloud or just a treasured story to share.

    Part of the Hooray for Family series, this book was originally published in Italy. Featuring charming insights about Mommies, Daddies, Grandmas and Grandpas, each of the Hooray for Family books celebrates families in a delightful way.
    Xist Publishing is proud to present the Hooray for Family books in their first English publication editions. By bringing beloved stories from diverse cultures to new audiences, Xist Publishing celebrates childhood in all its beautiful forms. We hope your children will enjoy these stories and discover a lifetime love of reading and love for all the people and creatures of the world.
