It’s always a good time when Nana comes for a visit! Nana doesn’t mind making a mess while building forts. Nana plays checkers to win. Nana encourages climbing high, savoring dessert, and playing hopscotch. In short, everything’s more fun with Nana and her spunky outlook on life!
 
Nana the Great Comes to Visit celebrates the countless ways grownups help children learn to believe in themselves—and assures children that a grandparent’s love stays with them always.
I love my Nana
and I love when she comes to visit . . . 

even though Mama thinks she's kind of naughty.

“Nana! Look at this huge mess you made,”
Mama says. “You’re as naughty as the kids!”

“Or I’m a fort-building genius,” Nana
the Great replies, winking at me.

“Definitely a genius,” I say.

Mama just sighs and laughs
as she heads to the kitchen.
