Harris makes it simple. Simply a wonderful book."

Emphasizing situational solutions

Grandparenting: How To Meet Its Responsibilities by Godfrey Harris is a straightforward, no-nonsense, large-print, "reader friendly" introduction to the challenges and rewards of being a grandparent. Emphasizing situational solutions, Grandparenting presents numerous single-page examples of techniques that can readily and effectively be utilized to deal with difficult situations, and make often time limited grandparent/grandchild encounters as personally rewarding as possible. Grandparenting is a very highly recommended compendium of practical advice for grandparents of all circumstances and familial backgrounds.
