I Love Grandad is a celebratory children’s picture book by C. Géraldine. The book consists of several rhyming verses celebrating the love we have for our grandfathers. The characters are depicted as hares by M. Corà which creates a feeling of inclusivity – a story that any child can see themselves in. Géraldine describes various activities granddads and grandkids can do together, as well as some characteristics many grandfathers have and what’s to love about them. They also showcase how wonderful grandparents are at raising, playing with, and comforting children. Corà illustrates all the rhymes in beautiful watercolors, adding a sense of calm to each page. This is a tribute to all grandfathers out there.
I Love Grandad is an easy-to-read and enjoyable children’s book. I can tell that C. Géraldine truly loves her grandad and has shown her feelings by writing a fantastic tribute to all granddads in the world. As a person who lost both grandfathers at an early age, I feel I missed out on some great memories that others might have experienced. I think it’s very important to celebrate and appreciate grandfathers while they are still in your life, and this is the same for children. M. Corà’s illustrations fit well with the book's overall theme of love and celebration. She has a beautiful artistic style and portrays the joy of spending time with a grandparent effortlessly. The book pays beautiful and sweet homage to grandfathers everywhere, and the significant impact they can have on their grandkids’ lives.
