The illustrations in the book are absolutely stunning!
‘A Grandma’s Love’ is a beautiful keepsake that illustrates the special bond between grandmothers and their grandchildren. The messaging gentle and heartfelt, sharing a sweet message about how all little ones are so deeply loved by their adult figures.
The illustrations in the book are absolutely stunning! Every picture is beautifully detailed and brings the story to life in such a detailed way. I also loved that the story features Australian native animals throughout, making it educational as little readers are introduced to our unique wildlife. My 4 year old and 18 month old loved talking about each animal and where they lived!
This is the perfect book for bedtime, a thoughtful gift for a grandmother, or a treasured addition to your little one’s bookshelf. My littles loved sitting down to read it with their grandma 💕

A Mum’s Love – Picture and Rhyming Book
After watching the flip-through of this delightful book and seeing all of those hand-drawn illustrations of endearing baby animals with their parents, I knew exactly who would love this as a gift. My friend's daughter is a new mum and I wanted to give her something really special that could be personalised as a keep-sake. I purchased the large hard-back version and got Lesley to type in a message from her baby girl to the new mum. I was told it reduced the new mum to tears and when her baby is a little bit older, she's going to enjoy reading it with her little girl. I cannot recommend this book highly enough.
