This is the kind of book that makes a person wish that they'd thought to write it first, though they know that their own story would have turned out differently. This is a beautiful piece. It has a strong personal focus that lets the reader feel comfortably intimate with the author and subject. What I'm saying usually goes something like, "I feel like I know her even though I've never met either person involved." Strong descriptive writing with a pleasantly simple scaffolded framework that allows the writer to explore the depths of her relationship with her grandparent. ( )

Quinnie Blue peeks into the curious nature of a little girl and her relationship with her grandmother. The illustrations are vivid and provide a detailed description of the author’s written language, which makes the book perfect for a read along.
