My Grandson is a Genius

release date: Aug 07, 2003
My Grandson is a Genius
Told in cheery rhyme from a grandfather''s perspective, this charming and funny book follows a very proud grandfather and his young grandson as they spend the day together. While Grandpa is spouting about the little boy''s musical ability, or his chances at making the Olympic team next year, the art shows a very typical toddler making messes and causing trouble. A testament to the fact that love is blind, and for grandparents at least, it should stay that way!
