Description

A companion to Grandma's Guide to Happiness, this picture book from bestselling author Andrew Daddo is a heartwarming book of grandfatherly philosophy.

My grandpa says the funniest things. He says the happiest days are the busiest days, and there's usually a stack of things to do.

It's always fun spending time with Grandpa -- fixing things in the shed, doing some gardening, fishing at the pier or telling jokes in the backyard.

A joyful story celebrating grandfathers from beloved Australian author Andrew Daddo, with heartwarming art by Christopher Nielsen.
