Praise for Grandpa's Blessing

Grandpa's Blessing focuses on the wonder of a grandchild and the bond between little ones and their grandpa. Merry creatures—from peacocks and seals, to lions, pigs, and pandas—reflect the joy of shared activities like skipping rocks, fishing, and grand adventures. The artwork illustrates laughter and curiosity of little ones. It's a celebration of love, God's blessing of a child, and the special connection of grandkids.” —Karen Whiting, author, coach, grandmother, and adventurer

Grandpa’s Blessing celebrates the treasured relationship and special love between a grandfather and a grandchild. With soft rhyming text and adorable illustrations, Grandpa’s Blessing points out the joy a little one brings to Grandpa and reinforces the unique bond shared between a grandfather and grandchild. This one is sure to be Grandpa’s favorite book to read over and over to a little one cuddled on his lap.” —Julie Lavender, author of A Gingerbread House and Children’s Bible Stories for Bedtime

“A fun and memorable picture book that celebrates the special bond between grandfather and grandchild. The rhyming text and bright illustrations will make this a favorite for any Grandpa, Grampy, Opa, or Pop to read to his young grandkids.” —Abigail Gehring, author of more than a dozen books including The Simple Joys of Grandparenting and God’s Gift of Christmas

“In a world where generational connections seem to be dwindling, this beautiful poem-story provides the loving, essential language I wish every grandchild could hear. And the art is so much fun!” —Mark T. Hancock, author and CEO of Trail Life USA

"Adorable! Bravo to Michelle on this beautifully inspired book—Grandpa's Blessings. This little book will bring a smile to every old Grandpa's wrinkly face and will invite tears of joy to trickle down from their eyes with memories. As a Grandpa myself—or Papaw as I'm called—this is a priceless book to share with each and every grandchild no matter the age. Every single word is so true, and the talented artwork of the animals will keep the attention of every little reader. Michelle summed up my thoughts about my grandchildren when she penned, 'You bless me every single day. I hope I bless you, too. Because there isn't anything I wouldn't do for you.' This is not only a gorgeous book, but it will invite a closer bond to my grandchildren each time I sit and read it to them. I'm a blessed Grandpa indeed.” —Del Duduit, award-winning author of many books, including Sports Shorts and Birdies, Bogeys & Blessings
