'I like the way Blackshaw has incorporated many of the household furniture and objects to his own grandparents or extended family, and this is what makes the book feel authentic and genuine whilst funny and entertaining'. --The Values Bookshelf 'This is a sweet, funny story of forgiveness and recognizing what is really valuable in life'. --Armadillo Children's Magazine Some rules... and vases... were just made for breaking! This is the story of a boy who loves his grandma, but can't stand all her rules! She has rules for every room in the house - don't jump on the bed, or leave the loo seat up, or put your elbows on the table.... But there is one rule that is more important than all the others. DON'T touch the big blue and white vase. When Grandma pops to the shops, the boy does his best to follow the rules, but a terrible domino effect of errors results in the inevitable CRASH! What will Grandma say? With Grandmas you never can tell... This is a heartwarming tale about forgiving one's mistakes, and about how some rules are not quite as important as they might seem. Gorgeous pencil illustrations bring the eccentric grandma and her pattern-filled house alive.

When H. Byron Earhart’s father enlisted in the U.S. Navy in 1942, young Byron and his family moved into his grandparents' old-fashioned home with a coal-fired range and potbelly stove, and his mother took charge of the family business, a frozen food locker. Grandma was the undisputed head of the family. While his father served on the battleship USS Missouri, his grandparents and mother held the family and the business together. At Grandma’s House is a tribute to everyday Americans who provided the social glue for a country at war as they balanced fear and anxiety for loved ones with the challenges and pleasures of daily life. The experiences of the Earhart family and this Midwestern community, supplemented by contemporary documents, family photos, and professional illustrations, recount with vivid local color the drama that played out on the national and international stage.

On My Way to Grandma's House is one volume in a series of educational guides published by Math4Minors, an educational service organization designed to help teachers, Command and Conquer the Math Curriculum. By integrating a simple story with a detailed learning strategy, this series helps build strong foundational skills and a deeper understanding of the math concepts that are embedded in common core and state standards. At first glance, this story about Lily and her friends seems to focus primarily on the concept of rounding numbers, a standard identified in the Number and Base Ten standards found in grades 3, 4 and 5. However, rather than looking at rounding as an isolated skill, Math MileMarkers uses this opportunity to encourage teachers and children to explore the number line in places they may never have been before. Don't underestimate this simple story, its message reaches far beyond Lily's trip to grandma's and another happy ending.
