Without grandmothers or grandfathers, too many children from eighteen years old and younger would not receive the emotional support or have their basic needs met, which could contribute to them becoming healthy adult people. Letters To My Granddaughter focuses on the life of one family's journey from St. Louis, Misouri, to the housing projects of San Francisco, California. Eight years later, they moved to the suburbs of San Mateo County, California. Curry remains steadfast to her granddaughter's question, by sharing her early years, falling in love, learning about the duties of a wife and mother, becoming a Christian, and how choices were made to protect their children as they were growing into adult. There were times when it was hard, yet they stayed on their course. An interesting and enlightening section unfolds in 'Family Adventures' where Danielle's three aunts, her Dad and four uncles write her letters too.

Finalist for the 2018 Minnesota Book Award A graphic designer’s search for inspiration leads to a cache of letters and the mystery of one man’s fate during World War II. Seeking inspiration for a new font design in an antique store in small-town Stillwater, Minnesota, graphic designer Carolyn Porter stumbled across a bundle of letters and was immediately drawn to their beautifully expressive pen-and-ink handwriting. She could not read the letters—they were in French—but she noticed all of them had been signed by a man named Marcel and mailed from Berlin to his family in France during the middle of World War II. As Carolyn grappled with designing the font, she decided to have one of Marcel’s letters translated. Reading it opened a portal to a different time, and what began as mere curiosity quickly became an obsession with finding out why the letter writer, Marcel Heuzé, had been in Berlin, how his letters came to be on sale in a store halfway around the world, and, most importantly, whether he ever returned to his beloved wife and daughters after the war. Marcel’s Letters is the incredible story of Carolyn’s increasingly desperate search to uncover the mystery of one man’s fate during WWII, seeking answers across Germany, France, and the United States. Simultaneously, she continues to work on what would become the acclaimed P22 Marcel font, immortalizing the man and his letters that waited almost seventy years to be reunited with his family.
