The Long Distance Grandmother

I bought this book as a gift and have purchased it quite a few times for long distance grandmothers and have always had rave reviews about it.

An outstanding, readable book for grandparents, near or far.

This book is a wonderful guide to creating good relationships with grandchildren, even if they live in the same city with you! Mrs. Wassermann's ideas are creative, simply expressed, and easy to implement. They are not expensive or elaborate, and anyone can be successful at them. I have used many of her ideas with my own grandchildren and have given this book to many friends. It makes a great gift for new grandparents, too
