Gift ideas for grandkids: a book with your name on page one
Every grandparent has stood in a toy aisle wondering what the child does not already have. A book in which they are the hero, with your dedication on the first page, is the answer that costs little shelf space.
Why a book beats one more toy
A toy gets played with for a month. A book gets read at bedtime for years, and a child reaches for the one in which they are the hero. The dedication turns it into something of yours: your handwriting is a line in print that will sit on their shelf until they are grown.
Choosing by age
Under 3. Short sentences and a calm rhythm: The Day You Arrived, Good Night, How Far I Love You.
3 to 6. A story about what they live: the dark, a lovey, a new baby, a birthday morning.
6 to 8. A real plot with their face as the hero: I'm a Superhero or My Dog's Secret Life.
Sending it from far away
Enter the grandchild's address at checkout and the book ships there, in the USA, with shipping included. For a book with their real face, ask their parents for one clear photo. It is used only to draw the book, never reused, and deleted within 30 days.
