Aunt Claire's Yellow Beehive Hair

32 pp. | Dial | May, 2001 | Trade ISBN 0-8037-2509-4 $$15.99
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Mary GrandPre. This nostalgic plot features a young girl interested in family history who, with the help of her grandmother and great-aunt, puts together a family memory book from photos and other memorabilia. This occasion spurs numerous brief reminiscences of bygone relatives, whose various characteristics (such as the beehive hair of the title) are whimsically illustrated--and exaggerated--in the pastel artwork.
