Book Description
Lucy and her grandfather are the focus of this poignant and warm story that teaches that wrinkles are badges of happiness rather than signs of age. Lucy asks Granddad, “Why doesn't your skin fit you? It's all crinkly,” to which he replies, “Those crinkles are called wrinkles,” each of which he got when he smiled especially big. As Lucy traces Granddad's joy-filled face, he describes his memories and shares the cause of each line—his wedding day, Lucy's mother's birth, precious moments from her childhood, and Lucy's birth, among others. Beautiful drawings recreate each thoughtful memory, and the recollections showcase an intimate bond between the two generations.

Book Description
IL libro "NONNO OLIVER A CASA VERDIANA" apre al lettore un mondo molto vicino alle famiglie Inglesi, Italiane e di tutto il mondo civile, cioè quello relativo alle Case di Riposo per persone della terza età cosiddette AUTOSUFFICIENTI,ma che spesso per muoversi utlizzano un carrello deambulatore. Sono presenti aspetti della vita quotidiana, delle amicizie e delle relazioni tra loro, con le Suore che gestiscono Casa Verdiana, con i medici, gli operatori civili e i loro famigliari. Quest'ultimi sono fondamentali per la loro salute fisica e mentale, perché con il loro affetto e le loro visite hanno l'effetto paragonabile a quello ottenuto con le terapie mediche e con una buona assistenza materiale, fisica e spirituale. Riflette la società Inglese, Italiana e di altre nazioni del mondo, perché le persone ospitate sono per la maggior parte donne, che vivono più a lungo degli uomini. Iniziano ad essere presenti anche stranieri come NONNO OLIVER, segno che la società italiana è sempre più internazionale e multirazziale.

Book Description
The book "GRANDFATHER LIAM A CASA AZZURRA" opens to the reader a world very close to American, Italian and civilized families, namely the one relating to Rest Homes for so-called SELF-SUFFICIENT people, but who often use a walking trolley to move around. There are aspects of daily life, friendships and relationships between them and with the Sisters who manage Casa Azzurra, as well as with doctors, civil workers and their families. In fact, the latter with their affection and their visits are fundamental for their physical and mental health, on a par with medical therapies and good material, physical and spiritual assistance. It reflects the American, Italian and other nations of the world society because the people hosted are mostly women, who live longer than men, but foreigners such as NONNO LIAM are also starting to be present, a sign that Italian society is increasingly international and multiracial.

Book Description
"A glorious debut from a gifted author." - Adriana Trigiani, bestselling author of Big Stone Gap and The Shoemaker's Wife On the edge of the wilderness, her adventure began. "Keowee Valley is a terrific first novel by Katherine Scott Crawford--a name that should be remembered. She has a lovely prose style, a great sense of both humor and history, and she tells about a time in South Carolina that I never even imagined." --Pat Conroy, bestselling author of The Prince of Tides and South of Broad. She journeyed into the wilderness to find a kidnapped relative. She stayed to build a new life filled with adventure, danger, and passion. Spring, 1768. The Southern frontier is a treacherous wilderness inhabited by the powerful Cherokee people. In Charlestown, South Carolina, twenty-five-year-old Quincy MacFadden receives news from beyond the grave: her cousin, a man she'd believed long dead, is alive--held captive by the Shawnee Indians. Unmarried, bookish, and plagued by visions of the future, Quinn is a woman out of place . . . and this is the opportunity for which she's been longing. Determined to save two lives, her cousin's and her own, Quinn travels the rugged Cherokee Path into the South Carolina Blue Ridge. But in order to rescue her cousin, Quinn must trust an enigmatic half-Cherokee tracker whose loyalties may lie elsewhere. As translator to the British army, Jack Wolf walks a perilous line between a King he hates and a homeland he loves. When Jack is ordered to negotiate for Indian loyalty in the Revolution to come, the pair must decide: obey the Crown, or commit treason . . . Katherine Scott Crawford was born and raised in the blue hills of the South Carolina Upcountry, the history and setting of which inspired Keowee Valley. Winner of a North Carolina Arts Award, she is a former newspaper reporter and outdoor educator, a college English teacher, and an avid hiker. She lives with her family in the mountains of Western North Carolina, where she tries to resist the siren call of her passport as she works on her next novel.

Book Description
Gough, Feehan, and Lyons have taken everything learned from their research on developing GrandFamily Resource Collections and leading grandfamily programming in several states and put it in this easy to use guide. They share the successes and failures of existing programs so other librarians can hit the ground running rather than trudge through a time-consuming and costly period of trial-and-error. It’s a lot more efficient to learn from someone else’s mistakes than to make your own. The target population, grandfamilies, and most specifically, grandparents raising grandchildren have become a statistically-significant group worthy of attention in many communities but library practitioners may not have explored further due to a lack of resources and money. Special features include: List of Web resources (government agencies, support groups, etc.) List of grants and funding opportunities Sample grant applications List of possible community partners for the library Sample surveys or some tactic for getting to know the needs of one’s target population Sample marketing plans Sample promotional materials Sample activity sheets Sample release forms, etc. With this practical and comprehensive guide, your library will be ready to jumpstart or easily expand a stellar program for the grandfamilies in your community.
