Customer Reviews

A book for ALL grandmothers -

There are just so many entries in this little book that seem to say all the right things about just being a grandmother. It IS a special time for us and I plan to buy a few more copies and share them with my friends who are also grannies!

Incredible, wonderful, beautiful little book!!!

Lenox Butterfly Meadow Bone Porcelain SaucerPfaltzgraff Tea Rose Coffee Mug Mary Engelbreit's works are incomparable and this book has to be her crown jewel! I'd recommend this little book for the illustrations alone, but the stories, anecdotes, proverbs, and etc. that make up the book are priceless! Mary is in a league with Tasha Tudor. Wouldn't you just love to sit down and enjoy a cup of tea with them?!The book arrived in perfect condition. What more can I say, other than to quote Mary herself: "Buy it! Buy it!" :)

Grandma love!

I received this book as a gift and have purchased 2 more copies for gifts. So very delightful with Mary's illustrations and a wonderful "read" for proud grandmas like--ME!
