review 1: What makes this book special are the illustrations! They are truly amazing works of art. Christopher Denise is one talented illustrator. The text was okay...the sentiment was beautiful and the ending touched the heart, but some of the pages left me scratching my head. It felt clumsy at times.This is a cute book for daughters of single dads or for girls that have a sweet relationship with their grandpas or other positive male figures in their lives.
review 2: An absolutely beautiful book. Comparable to "When I am Old With You" by Angela Johnson, this story of a granddaughter's love for her grandfather is written in sweet rhyme. The story flips from the "When I am Me",..where the little girl talks about visiting camp or swinging, to the "When you are you", wher... moree she talks about her grandfather staying home to be who he has to be when he is alone. The illustrations are sweet and soft, with touching expressions on the faces of the characters. There is a gentle give and take between the strengths of old and young that even the youngest reader(listener)can understand. less
