Highlights
What readers are saying
Readers appreciate the lighthearted take on grandparenting, often relating to its humorous insights and relatable anecdotes. Many find it a delightful gift for new grandmothers, offering both entertainment and advice. However, some express that the humor didn't resonate with them personally and that the book's perspective may not suit everyone.
Synopsis
Funny, You Don¿t Look Like a Grandmother is a humorous, heartwarming revue that looks at modern grandmothers in a whole new light.
These are the women who have thrown away the granny glasses, shapeless black dresses and Red Cross shoes and replaced them with cute little tennis dresses, skis and a condo in Florida.
The show celebrates these changes with skits and songs about everything from what to name the grandmother to her availability as baby sitter, her job, her friends, her activities, her new interest in shopping, but most of all, her relationship to that incredible new baby and its parents.
Whether you are a grandparent or a grandchild, every generation of your family will love this show!
