Everything Grandma Needs

By Molly Beth Griffin

A sweet intergenerational picture book celebrating the beauty of downsizing, decluttering, and accepting change. This warm, thoughtful story makes space for what truly matters: family.

A heartfelt tool for parents to teach their kids mindfulness, gratitude, and the gentle way of letting go of what no longer serves you.

When Grandma announces she is moving from her big old house to a little new condo, she and her family realize she has too many things. They just won't fit in her new place

Luckily they have a solution: everyone will help Grandma downsize But while they sort through, they realize that everyday items like art supplies, jewelry, and books possess unique memories and stories that they hold dear.

The family finds the solution in creating three piles: Keep, Donate, and Throw Away. As each pile grows, Grandma realizes it will be okay, so long as she saves space in her new condo--and her heart--for those she loves most.
