Top 10 Best "Grandmothers" Books

Nine Granny Wisdoms An handbook of tender lessons shared between grands and their grandmothers.

Whether you're a veteran grandma or a Nana-to-be, this collection of stories will warm your heart and make you laugh about the universal experiences of being a grandmother: the phone call that announces your baby will become a mom herself; the first time you hold the most beautiful grandson or granddaughter in the world; and the day you're on baby-sitting duty and realize that major issues are minor infractions best solved with love instead of lectures.

This book celebrates the memories we make and the times we cherish with grandmothers: the women who can both spoil and be stern; who provide unconditional love and invaluable wisdom; who can share sage advice while sharing an ice cream.

Chicken Soup for the Grandma's Soul is the perfect thank-you to grandmothers everywhere- those special women who enrich our lives with joy and love.

Excerpt from "The Granny Mystique" by Marguerite T. Langstaff

Grandmothers teach lessons which last a lifetime and influence who we are, how we think, and what we do. Nine Granny Wisdoms taken from these letters show us how these lessons are learned. The Granny Mystique is dedicated to Grandma, Oma, Mimi, Grams, and the other grandmothers in this exciting Twenty First Century. They all give the gifts of Granny Wisdoms.

In the pages which follow grandchildren are referred to in both masculine and feminine tense. Either way, he/she is loved unconditionally.

Letters of all subjects are scattered throughout The Granny Mystique. That is the essence of the mystique itself. No one wisdom stands alone, and no one letter has a singular subject. The letters written by the children encompass the whole grandmother, and so, too, The Granny Mystique includes all the wisdoms.
