At Grandma's house, where Julia is staying without her parents for the first time, the breeze is sweet like jasmine. Mornings begin with sugared bread, and the most magnificent hot chocolate cures all homesickness. There's something about this place and about Grandma. Like how she can tell when Julia has been quietly picking limes from the garden. Or that she can see the future--and knows when Julia is about to fall off her bike. Or how she can journey back in time through the stories she tells. In the room where Julia's mother grew up, her grandmother holds her in a warm embrace--an embrace that Julia will pass on to her family when her parents arrive with her new baby brother.

For the first time, Julia is going by herself to stay at Grandma’s house. Lots of things there are different from what she is used to. It is even in another country.
The little girl is fascinated by the plants Grandma has growing on her house and in her garden. She is amazed that Grandma knows how to do so many things, including knowing when Julia is homesick, and helps her feel better. In the end, the mystery of why Julia went alone is revealed when her parents arrive with a new baby.
This tale will open children’s eyes to the fun, new, and interesting things that older people have to offer. Also, that learning unfamiliar things can be an adventure. It introduces the idea of going alone to visit someone and prepares them for the possibility of being homesick.
This is a good story to read anytime but will be handy if a child will be visiting someone by themselves. Hard-backed and over-sized this book contains illustrations on every page. Children ages four through eight-years-old will enjoy this tale.
Candlewick Press has provided Tickmenot with a complimentary copy of, Something About Grandma, for the purpose of review. (
