The Story Behind

How to Babysit a Grandpa

"What do you enjoy doing with your grandpa?"  I asked this question to many kids, grandkids, and adults who used to be kids and grandkids.  I also remembered what I liked to do with my grandpa.  And I observed my own kids as they played with their grandpa.  This "research" generated a long, long list of what I wanted to include in the book.  Of course, there wasn't room for everything, so I chose my favorites and then created a story about these shared activities. 

If you ask this question as you share time with your grandpa, I bet you'll come up with a long, long list, too!
