just ordered - By: , 08 Jul 1999
I ordered this book because I just became a grandmother of a baby girl last week & saw the author in the Today show--I was dismayed at her use of negative words & negative appproach to the different "types" of grandmothers & wanted to find out just what she was talking about. Words like "manipulative" & "meddling" are so distructive. I consider my new role as one of support & teaching & love of my daughter & her family & being there for her after her c-section as a privilege--I am saddened that this could be callled meddling & rather insulted by these terms. So I want to read the book to find out if the impression given by the interview was correct.
A "must read" if you have a grandmother! - By: , 07 Jul 1999
As I've gotten older, I've come to realize the important role my grandmother had in who I am today. I was lucky enough to be able to tell my grandmother, the "Kinkeeper" how important she was to me before she died. Hope's book can teach alll of us that has a grandmother not to overlook this special bond. You'll want to calll your grandmother after reading Hope's book. If I could recommend another great grandmother book, it would be "Something to Remember Me By" by Susan V. Bosak. I sent it to my grandmother as a way to tell her how important she was to me, & it meant so much to her! Horray for grandmothers!
