Members Reviews: I am impressed with the author not only with her writing ability but her artistic ability as well. I bought the book because I was intrigued with cover of the book. Did not realize it was a children's book until I was several pages into it. However, I found the book to be most entertaining and was astonished with the creativity of the author. I would be a great gift for children 7 and above. What I liked most was her imagination and how she involved all the characters with such unique descriptions which made your imaginations run wild. I just wished there were more pictures so that my mind could hone in on them a little more precisely. If this is just her first book, bravo to her, I am anxiously waiting for the next one.....

Life Lessons from Grandma is both a comforting and inspiring read. Each chapter is a separate "lesson," explained using real life scenarios that people of all ages can understand and relate to. This book reminded me how wise grandmas can be, and inspired me to give mine a call and take in all of the advice they have to offer. It's clear that the author understood how significant this advice was and really took these valuable life lessons to heart when writing this book. My favorite chapter in this book, and the one that resonated with me the most, was "Self-Love requires you to be selfish." There was some seriously powerful stuff in this chapter and throughout the entire book that really makes the reader think about how they're living their lives! This book was a quick, enjoyable read that I will definitely be recommending! Honest life lessons. Upon reading this book, my initial thoughts about this was it was something already done many times. However, as you go deep into every page, it would become clear that these things are molded to blend with the modern situations. In short these life lessons that are featured in this book became so much more relevant in the way of living right now. There are just some points that I wanted to point out: 1. I do think that it would have been much better if the tone was more motherly. The author's tone sounded like a young person, instead of the Grandma persona. 2. I like that all the situations featured in the book was relatable. A good book is always relatable, regardless of who would read it. It did definitely show an effort to reach to any young target audience. For adults, it might be a bit of an acquired taste. 3. I find that some of the anecdotes sounded a bit negative. It might be because I was hearing a young person's tone, not of a grandma's. It still is helpful and inspiring, however, it just sounded so firm for my taste. 4. It just sounded a bit too aggressive, at some parts of the book. I mean, it doesn't bother me at all, however, it might end up giving a different interpretation to other readers that would be a bit sensitive in some points given in the book. 5. I like the lightness of it. However, I was looking for the persona of a grandmother, and at some parts, I don't think I really feel the presence of a grandmother giving me all of these life lessons. Regardless, I find that the things that were addressed in the book could become a source of strength, in some way.
