Riassunto

Emily loves to visit Grandma and Grandpa. Like most grandchildren, she gets lots of affection and the freedom to do what she wants. But sadly, every visit comes to an end, leaving Emily longing for a way to feel close to her grandparents ... until she can see them again.This gracefully illustrated story begins with Emily's sorrowful wishes: "I wish you didn't live so far away. I wish I could sleep over any time I want." It continues with a special gift from Grandma and Grandpa that teaches Emily to use her imagination, memory, and natural surroundings to feel connected to her grandparents. In the end, Emily surprises her grandparents with a gift of her own, showing them that children are not the only ones who can use memories and imagination as comfort when they are missing those they hold dear.

L'autore:

Alayne Kay Christian is a writer, certified life coach, and proud grandmother to three-year-old Elle. Butterfly Kisses for Grandma and Grandpa was born out of the struggle and longing she experienced as a ?remote? grandparent and her dedication to ensuring that Elle felt the love of her grandparents when they could not be together.Born in the Rockies, raised in Chicago, and now residing in Raleigh, North Carolina, Alayne?s writing shares the creative spirit and kinship with nature that organically resides in her heart.Joni Stringfield is a lifelong artist and freelance illustrator specializing in children?s creations. Having recently completed illustrations on the picture book Circle of Three, Joni makes her second foray into this genre with Butterfly Kisses for Grandma and Grandpa. As has been the case since childhood, she spends her time drawing, painting, and reading. Currently living and working in San Francisco, California, Joni feels fortunate to be able to employ the artistic passions of her youth in her professional (and somewhat grown-up) career.
