![]() It’s been this beautiful extension of the love that I feel for my children combined with a more seasoned perspective. And I’ve found that being a grandparent does just that. ![]() I always say that a “spark” is an idea that takes up residence in both my head and my heart. ![]() And it’s always such an honor to be a guest interviewee. I love and learn so much from Picture Book Builders. Jean: Hi Andrea! It’s so great to be back. So I’m delighted to interview my friend Jean Reidy, whose new book, A GRAND DAY, is all about the love between grandparents and grandchildren.Īndrea: Welcome back to Picture Book Builders, Jean! In your interview with Jill last year about GROUP HUG, you said, “For me, writing a picture book starts with a spark.” What was the spark that eventually became A GRAND DAY? Although we didn’t really speak the same language, we shared a language of the heart. I hope, too, that you were able to see friends and family this year (chosen family counts!) I was lucky to grow up visiting my maternal grandparents pretty often. I hope everyone is doing well and enjoying these last days of 2022. ![]() This rhyming, warmhearted picture book celebrates the unique bond between grandparents and grandchildren in every kind of family. ![]() Whether planting a garden, having a picnic, or baking, any day spent together is sure to be GRAND. ![]()
