My Hippie Grandmother

24 pp. | Candlewick | February, 2003 | Trade ISBN 0-7636-0671-5 $$15.99
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Abby Carter. Grandma hasn't cut her hair since 1969; she has plants in every window; she sells bread and vegetables at the farmers' market--in short, she's everything that the narrator wants to be when she's her grandmother's age. Although Grandma is presented both in the text and in the cheerful watercolor and gouache illustrations as a free spirit, the text is made up of rather conventional, if taut and sprightly, rhymes.
