Why do grannies always tell us to speak up? Why do they have creases on their faces? Are grannies flexible? How do you cheer up a sad granny? How old are grannies, actually? Eric Veillé explains it all in this offbeat book for the extended family to chuckle over--no matter what kind of grandma you have, are, or would like to be. From the author of My Pictures after the Storm, which received three starred reviews and which School Library Journal proclaimed "may be the funniest book of the year."

Lucy's Review: Why do grannies have creases? How flexible are grannies? How old are grannies? Why do grannies travel on buses? Eric Veillé's Encyclopedia of Grannies will answer all your questions and a great many you never knew you had - like the fact that inside every granny is a house where the little girl she once was still lives and just what granny keeps in her bed. Perfect for reading with a granny ... especially as a granny always has time. Another fabulous book from the author of the hilarious My Pictures after the Storm.
