About this ebook
From acclaimed creators Shelly Becker and Dan Yaccarino comes this joyful board book about a girl and her grandmother as they plan the perfect visit together
This joyful rhyming board book is a tender love letter between every grandchild and grandmother who live far apart.
Dan Yaccarino’s enchanting illustrations and Shelly Becker’s jaunty text—based on the beloved nursery rhyme “One, Two, Buckle My Shoe”—carry a reminder that no matter how far away Grandma may be, her love is always with you.
One, two, Grandma loves you. / Three, four, visit more.
Five, six, precious pics. / Seven, eight, mark the date.
Publishers Weekly praised the hardcover edition of this book: “The duo’s intergenerational affection is portrayed as effortless, effusive, and unconditional. A wonderful celebration of reunions.” And in a starred review, School Library Journal called it “a pure, cadenced classic, where the clues to good times past and present add up to a generous look at the special bonds of an extended family.”

About the author
Shelly Becker is the author of One, Two, Grandma Loves You, which School Library Journal called “a pure, cadenced classic” in a starred review. Her other books include Even Superheroes Get Scared, Even Superheroes Make Mistakes, Even Superheroes Have Bad Days (a 2018 Blue Spruce Award Nominee that Kirkus Reviews called “an action-packed romp”), and Mine! Mine! Mine!, which has been included on many Top Five and Top Ten lists of books that teach the concept of sharing. Becker lives in Toronto, far away from her three wonderful grandchildren, who live in New Jersey. When they can’t be together in person, they keep in touch by speaking on the phone and sending plenty of pictures and videos.
